30-Year-Old Killed While Running From The Police

A 30-year-old Kewaskum man is dead after crashing his vehicle while attempting to elude Sheboygan County Sheriff’s Deputies.

Last evening just before 8 PM a deputy attempted to stop the driver on State Highway 28 for a traffic violation.

The driver failed to stop and accelerated.

A short time later the man lost control of his vehicle on 28 just south of Highway 144.

The vehicle left the roadway and rolled. The driver was pronounced dead at the scene. No other vehicles, injuries or property damage were reported.

Because of Sheboygan Counties involvement in the chase, they requested Washington County Sheriff’s Department to investigate and write the crash.

28 was closed for about 4 hours while the scene was investigated. No other details have been released at this time.
