KENOSHA COUNTY — A 36-year-old Kenosha man is dead following a hit-and-run that happened sometime overnight Saturday into Sunday.

A Kenosha County Sheriff's Deputy was traveling west on 52nd Street, also known as State Trunk Highway 158, and 88th Ave. just before 2:30 a.m. when they saw a person laying unresponsive on the shoulder of the road.

The deputy stopped and immediately started life-saving techniques, but the man was found to be deceased.

Due to the death being a result of a crash, Kenosha County's Major Crash Assistance Team responded to the scene to help with the investigation.

Upon further investigation, deputies discovered the 36-year-old had been involved in a hit-and-run earlier that evening near Green Bay Road and 56th. There, deputies say he crashed into a semi and fled the scene.

While he was fleeing from the scene, he was struck by another vehicle. That driver fled the scene but later turned himself in to the sheriff's department. He's been arrested for hit and run involving death.
