A deadly accident in Chippewa County is believed to be caused by speed.
It was just before 9 on Thursday morning when The Sheriff’s office received a report of a one vehicle crash with injuries. Upon the arrival of first responders the operator/lone occupant, 21 year old Rachel Brewer from Waupaca, was pronounced deceased at the scene. Based upon the initial investigation it appears that the vehicle was traveling westbound when the operator of the vehicle lost control and entered the north ditch. The vehicle continued through the ditch striking a tree causing severe damage to the vehicle and life ending injuries to the operator.
Speed is also believed to be a factor in this crash.
