Winona police were awaiting the results of a blood-alcohol test on the driver whose car plowed into that of Scott and Jill Peak at Mark Street and Mankato Avenue last Thursday afternoon. Lt. Jer- rie Seibert said the investigation was nearly fin- ished, and would be turned over to the city attor- ney's office when the test results were available. The accident sent both Peaks to the hospital, Scott at Community Memorial Hospital in Winona with broken ribs and a broken jaw, and Jill at Lu- theran Hospital in La Crosse, Wis., with a broken ankle and possible injuries to the head. The Peaks' two children, Allen, 4, and Katie, 1, were uninjured. Police chief Jack Scherer spid the children would have been killed had thOy not been strapped into child safety car seats. The head-on collision took place as the Peaks were heading out of Winona on Mankato Avenue. A car driven by Karen Morrealle of Winona was heading toward the Mississippi River, crossed the street's centerline, and struck the front left of the Peak car. Both of the vehicles struck other cars, Rescue workers removed Jill Peak from the wreck in a , 15-minute effort involving the Jaws of Life prying tool.
