A 1991 graduate of Chippewa Falls Senior High School was killed early Friday morning when his vehicle went airborne and crashed.
Killed was Shaun D. Neary, 35, of S7860 Fox Point Trail in Eau Claire.
The Eau Claire County Sheriff’s Department said the crash at 1:06 a.m. happened on County T, 0.1 miles north of Venture Avenue, in the town of Union.
According to the sheriff’s department:
Neary was southbound on County T when his car failed to make a left-hand corner. The car left the road and hit a driveway approach. The car then went airborne.
Neary was not wearing a seat belt and was ejected from the car. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Conditions including speed, driver condition and vehicle equipment may have played roles in the crash, the sheriff’s department said.
His death is the first traffic fatality in Eau Claire County in 2009.
