Horse Killed In Crash Near Manchester On Primary 20
A horse valued at 210 dollars was killed and a truck badly damaged in a Sunday morning crash one mile east of Manchester on primary 20. Emil Oesterhof of Gillette Wisconsin owned the truck and four horses recently bought. A second truck failed to stop after sideswiping the Oesterhof vehicle. Officers investigated at oil stations and a garage where evidence pointed to Earl Croskey of Manchester, a Midwest Shippers driver, who allegedly admitted involvement. Croskey lacked a driver’s license and the company carried accident insurance.
