A serious crash investigation shut down County Highway J in the Town of Dekorra on Saturday afternoon, closing a stretch of road in Columbia County for more than six hours before it reopened later in the evening.

The Columbia County Sheriff's Office said County Highway J between County Highway CS and Koltes Road was closed at 2:50 p.m. People were asked to avoid the area while officials investigated. Authorities said the road reopened at 9:05 p.m.

The closure affected a section of Columbia County, Wis., as officials worked through the crash scene in the Town of Dekorra. At the time of publication, authorities had not shared any details about injuries.

That missing information is the one detail left hanging. The roadway is open again, but officials have not said what led to the crash or whether anyone was hurt, leaving the basic facts of the incident unfinished even after traffic started moving again.

For now, the answer to the day's biggest question is limited to this: the road closure was lifted Saturday night, but the crash investigation itself remains without public details on injuries.
