It happened Green Bay Road. No one was seriously injured. 

"This is another example of why the MOVE OVER or SLOW DOWN law is in effect in Wisconsin. The law requires drivers to shift lanes or slow down in order to provide a "safety zone" for police, fire, ambulance, tow truck or highway maintenance vehicles stopped with warning lights flashing," said the Pleasant Prairie Police Department on Facebook.
