20-Year-Old Killed in Kenosha After Minibike Collides With Box Truck

Police have activated the county major crash team as investigators reconstruct the collision from video and witness accounts.

Overview

  • A 20-year-old Kenosha man died after a crash near 60th Street and 13th Avenue that occurred just after noon on Tuesday, June 16.
  • Officers found the rider at the scene, gave aid, and he was taken to a local hospital where he later died; he was the only person injured.
  • Investigators say the victim was riding a non-street-legal minibike west on 60th Street when it struck a box truck that began turning onto 13th Avenue.
  • The Kenosha County Major Crash Assistance Team is processing the scene, police reviewed video and witness statements, the truck driver remained at the scene and is cooperating, and authorities are asking anyone with information to contact the Kenosha Police Department.
  • Non-street-legal minibikes are generally not permitted on public roads, a factor that raises safety and regulatory questions investigators may consider as the probe continues.
