At Rest

Pursuit
Jeffrey Gordon Gunzenhauser, 20, allegedly was drunk when he drove in the wrong lane and caused a crash that killed Harold Elvin Renkley. An off-duty Winnebago police officer witnessed the head-on crash after Gunzenhauser almost crashed into the officer's other. The officer was southbound on Highway 169 around 12:30 a.m. when he had to swerve onto the shoulder to avoid a collision with a Dodge Dart going northbound in the southbound lane. The Dart did not brake and kept going in the wrong lane as the officer turned around and notified the county dispatcher.
This record exists so that Harold Elvin Renkley, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
More lives from the archive.
