A Green Bay man is dead following a one-vehicle crash in Oconto County.
Oconto County Sheriff’s Office responded June 25 after an 11:55 a.m. call directed them to a pickup truck in a ditch, partially underwater, near U.S. 141 and Guelig Road in Lena.
The driver, a 75-year-old Green Bay man, was unresponsive and pronounced dead at the scene, according to a news release from the sheriff’s office.
Investigators believe the truck was headed south on U.S. 141, but do not know what caused it to leave the road and end up in the wetlands. An ongoing investigation is underway, with the assistance of the Brown County Medical Examiner’s Office.
