CLINTONVILLE, Wis. (WFRV) – An 87-year-old Marion man operating a UTV died from his injuries on Friday afternoon after crashing into a pickup truck.
According to the Clintonville Police Department, officers responded to a reported crash at the U.S. Highway 45/West Madison Street and Bennett Street intersection around 12:01 p.m.
