A Grand Marais woman, Angela Marie Benton, 28, swerved to miss a deer and went into the ditch on Highway 61 between the Cook-Lake county line and Schroeder just after midnight on Friday, June 27.
When her 2007 Pontiac Montana left the roadway, a wheel came off. Benton said she was not injured so no medical responders were called. She was able to get a ride home. The vehicle was removed from the ditch the next day by Cook County Towing.
Benton was cited for driving after suspension.
