A 22-year-old Marinette County man is dead after a Saturday morning traffic crash in the Town of Athelstane, Wisconsin.
That’s located about 35 miles south of the Iron Mountain-Kingsford area.
Deputies say the accident was reported at just before 9:00 Saturday morning on Perch Lake Road when the vehicle missed a curve, hit an embankment, and went airborne, landing in some trees. The only person in the car, identified as 22-year-old Robert Perry of Amberg, Wis., was pronounced dead at the scene.
Deputies believe excessive speed was a factor in the crash. They say Perry was not wearing a seatbelt.
