ORIGINAL STORY

LAKEVILLE - APPLE VALLEY, MINNESOTA - Just after 7 PM on Wednesday, August 9, 2023, a two-vehicle accident occurred at the intersection of 160th Street and Cedar Avenue on the Apple Valley and Lakeville, Minnesota border. Multiple calls were coming into Dakota County Dispatch about a two-vehicle crash involving a white car that was t-boned at the intersection.

Since the crash was right on the border of Lakeville and Apple Valley, Minnesota, resources from the Apple Valley Police Department and the Lakeville Police Department were called to the crash scene. Multiple ambulances were also called to the scene from the ALF Ambulance, and the Lakeville Fire Department was also dispatched to the accident scene. The vehicles of the accident came to rest on the far east side of the intersection.

How many people were involved in the crash and the extent of the injuries are unknown now, but there is an unconfirmed report of a young child possibly suffering a broken arm. We have contacted Apple Valley Police Department for more information on the crash, including how many people were involved, the extent of their injuries, and a possible cause of the crash.
