OCONOMOWOC - Oconomowoc High School Assistant Principal Jennifer
Bukosky was killed Friday afternoon in a severe accident, said
Oconomowoc School District Superintendent Pat Neudecker.
The accident happened at about 3:30 p.m. Friday at the
intersection of northbound highway 67 and Pabst Road when a black
Honda Accord driven by a 39-year-old town of Oconomowoc woman, that
was also carrying three juvenile passengers, was struck in the back
by a black Cadillac Escalade driven by a 56-year-old town of Summit
resident, according to an Oconomowoc Police Department release. The
Accord was stopped for a red traffic light that had just turned
green when it was struck. The Oconomowoc Police Department was not
releasing names of the victims late Friday night.
But Neudecker confirmed the crash killed Bukosky.
The driver of the Honda was pronounced dead at the scene and two
of the juvenile passengers were transported to Children’s
Hospital, where they are in critical condition, according to the
release. The third child was treated at Oconomowoc Memorial Hospital
and released as was the driver of the Escalade, who afterwards was
taken to the Waukesha County Jail, the release said.
