On Thursday, November 21, 2019 at approximately 4:58 PM, the Oconto County Sheriff’s
Office Emergency Dispatch Center was notified of a vehicle versus pedestrian accident on CTH
S north of CTH N in the Town of Oconto.
When deputies and first responders arrived on scene it was determined that a van, operated by a
58 year old male from Oconto, was traveling north on CTH S near CTH N when the van struck a
63 year old male pedestrian, also from the Oconto area, walking on the road. The pedestrian
died at the scene.
This matter remains under investigation by the Oconto County Sheriff’s Office and the Brown
County Medical Examiner’s Office. The Oconto County Sheriff’s Office was assisted by the
Oconto Police Department, Oconto Fire Department, Oconto County Highway Department, and
the Brown County Medical Examiner’s Office.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family as they deal with the loss of a loved one.
