It’s a busy morning for St. Clair County first responders. According to the St. Clair County Sheriff’s office, there are multiple reports of vehicle crashes due to icy roads. Included was a crash this morning along Lakeshoere Road near the county line, closing Lakeshore for a few hours this morning. Three were seriously injured in that incident.  Sheriff’s deputies also responded to a crash on eastbound I-69 near Range Road which caused some traffic backups. Public information officer Steve Campau says deputies are responding to crash reports all across the county. He reminds drivers to slow down especially on bridges and overpasses which are the first to ice over.
