Drone used to find motorcycle driver after crash
TOWN OF WEYAUWEGA (WLUK) -- A motorcycle driver had to be found with a heat-seeking drone camera after a crash early Saturday morning in Waupaca County.
At about 2:41 a.m., first responders from the Weyauwega Area Fire Department were called to the intersection of U.S. Highway 10 and County Highway U for a report of a motorcycle crash involving a deer.
When they arrived, first responders searched the area, but couldn't find the driver.
Weyauwega Area firefighters used their drone and thermal-imaging camera to find heat signatures, and found the driver by some large round hay bales in a neighboring field after about 20 minutes.
They say they carried the driver from the field to the highway.
The driver was then taken to an area hospital with severe head injuries.
