Two people have been arrested in a fatal crash Thursday morning on the North Side, Madison police reported.
The crash happened about 4:30 a.m. Thursday near the intersection of Packers Avenue and Tennyson Lane, Lt. Kimberly Alan said in a statement.
Chief Shon Barnes said in his blog that a car crashed into a tree, two occupants of the vehicle fled the scene and a third was pinned in the vehicle and died.
The two that fled, a 22-year-old man and a 19-year-old woman, were arrested on tentative charges of operating a motor vehicle without owner's consent resisting, Barnes said.
The Dane County Sheriff's Office, and police from UW-Madison, Maple Bluff, Fitchburg and Sun Prairie assisted with the response, Alan said.
