A buggy crash Friday morning sends one man to the hospital.

Vernon County Sheriff, Gene Cary, says it happened on State Highway 35, south of Sylvan Glen Road.
The Sheriff says James Bockenfeld of La Crosse was traveling south on Highway 35 when he rear ended the buggy.

The Sheriff says brothers 19-year-old Joseph Detweiler and 17-year-old Enos Detwilder of Cashton were thrown from the cart.
Enos was taken to Gundersen Lutheran Hospital for head injuries, but Joseph wasn't hurt.

The accident is still under investigation.

I have seen many buggies without the big orange slow-moving sign on them. They are suppose to have reflective tape around the edges also but you don't always see that. I hope for the best for the boys in the buggy!
