OSHKOSH, Wis–Bond is set at $10,000 cash for the owner of a boat involved in a hit and run crash on the Fox River in downtown Oshkosh. Jason Lindemann makes his initial appearance in Winnebago County Court Wednesday.
Lindemann’s power boat allegedly collided with the On the Loos Cruise paddle-wheeler along the Fox Saturday night and then fled the scene. Witnesses told investigators they saw Lindemann drinking in a restaurant he owns along the river before the crash–but the defense argues there is no way to prove the glass contained booze.
Assistant District Attorney Tracey Paider says that is why the charges do not involve impaired operation…………..
The Winnebago County Sheriff’s Office recommended Lindemann face 23 counts of Reckless Endangerment and Failure to Render Aid After a Boating Accident.
