PLANKINTON, S.D. (KFGO) – Katrina Christiansen, a University of Jamestown engineering professor running for the Democratic nomination for North Dakota’s U.S. Senate seat in 2024 says she and her family survived a crash Saturday afternoon in southeastern South Dakota.
Christensen says the driver of another car was attempting to pass a semi and their SUV was struck. “We are all okay because of the volunteer Plankinton Fire & Rescue’s efforts. This rural fire and rescue department saved the day. These folks represent the courage and generosity that makes our country exceptional. My family is so thankful for their dedication to helping people in the worst moments.”
Plankinton is located in southeastern South Dakota.
Christensen is seeking the democratic nomination to challenge republican US Senator Kevin Cramer.
