Press Release from the Walworth County Sheriff's Office:

On Thursday, September 2, 2010, approximately 8:11pm, the Walworth County Sheriff’s Office received a 911 call regarding a two car crash. This crash occurred at STH 20 and CTH N in the Town of Troy.

Upon arrival Deputies found a 2008 Saturn Vue in the front yard of a residence located at W2904 STH 20.

A six-year-old boy (Treyton E Kilar m/w 10-4-03 of Whitewater, WI) was found in the backseat of the car and was unresponsive. Deputies immediately initiated CPR on the child. He was transported to Waukesha Memorial Hospital where he succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead at 9:42pm.

The driver of this vehicle, Michael S Kilar (m/w DOB 7-15-66 – Whitewater, WI) received critical injuries and was also taken to Waukesha Memorial Hospital. Two other passengers did not appear to be injured. They are identified as Kindyl E Kilar (f/w DOB 4-29-05 – Whitewater, WI) and Rosemary L Jaskolski (f/w DOB 9-20-94 – Whitewater, WI).

A full size 2000 Chevy Suburban was also found in this yard. The Suburban was up against a tree. The driver and sole occupant of this vehicle is identified as Scott D Dragotta (m/w DOB 8-25-66 – East Troy, WI).

The Walworth County Crash Investigation Unit was summoned to the scene. Initial investigation revealed that Dragotta was northbound on Hwy N. Kilar was westbound on Hwy 20. Dragotta allegedly failed to stop for the stop sign and struck Kilar’s vehicle, and both vehicles ended up in the yard.

Dragotta was arrested for OWI – Homicide and OWI – Causing Great Bodily Harm and charges have been referred to the District Attorney’s Office. Dragotta will have his initial appearance today at 1pm at the Walworth County Judicial Center in Elkhorn, WI.

Dragotta is also a suspect in a hit and run causing injury crash which occurred minutes earlier in the Town of Lafayette. Both cases are open and ongoing and no further information about either case will be released at this time.
