A Crivitz woman died as the result of a UTV accident Saturday afternoon.
Marinette County Sheriff Randy Miller reports that at 3:04 pm Marinette County Dispatch was notified of a single UTV crash that happened on Caldron Falls Road near Fawn Lane in the Town of Stephenson.
The caller, who was an off-duty Marinette County Sheriff’s detective, stopped and observed there were two people pinned under the UTV and immediately began rendering aid.
The investigation indicates that a UTV operated by Brooke D. Boulanger, age 40, of Crivitz,
Wisconsin was traveling north on Caldron Falls Road when she failed to negotiate a curve and rolled over.
Boulanger, who was not wearing seatbelt or helmet, sustained fatal injuries. A passenger in the UTV, who was also not wearing a seatbelt or helmet, also sustained injuries and was transported for medical treatment. Speed, alcohol, and failure to wear a seatbelt appear to have been factors in the crash.
The crash remains under investigation by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, the Marinette County Sheriff’s Office, and the Marinette County Medical Examiner’s Office.
