The Outagamie County Sheriff’s Office says a deputy was stopped on the left side of the road in the town of Buchanan on Tuesday around 1 a.m. trying to remove a deer carcass when his squad car was hit by an SUV.
Deputy Brent Baxter was not in the squad car when it was hit, and he moved out of the way to avoid getting hit.
The squad car was parked on the side of the road with its emergency lights on when it was struck by an SUV driven by 35-year-old Christopher L. Kitchenakow. The crash sent the squad car 75 feet down the road. Deputies say Kitchenakow tried running away, but he was taken into custody and arrested for a third offense OWI.
