Names Released In Fatal Winnebago County Accident

17 April 2019 News


Winnebago County authorities have released the names of the two men killed in a head-on crash on State Highway 116 at Harbor South Drive in the town of Winneconne Monday night. Thirty-year-old Koley O’Brien of Winneconne was driving west on Highway 116 in a Nissan Pathfinder and 53-year-old Charles Mier of Omro was heading east in a Chevy Suburban. The two were the only occupants in their vehicles and died at the scene. From evidence gathered at the scene as well as a statement from a witness, it was determined that O’Brien’s vehicle crossed the center line and collided in a head-on fashion with Meyer’s vehicle. Both vehicles were traveling at highway speeds. It does not appear that alcohol was a factor, however toxicology results are pending.
