Snow clearing claims two lives in Milwaukee

December 30, 2015 By Bob Hague

Two men died while clearing snow from this week’s first major storm of the season. Both deaths occurred in Milwaukee on Tuesday. The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner’s office reported that a 54-year-old man collapsed while shoveling — and a 73-year-old man collapsed while operating a snowblower.

Milwaukee had a record snowfall for Monday of 9-inches — and it was extremely heavy due to sleet-and-freezing rain which fell beforehand. Snowfall amounts elsewhere included 11.5 inches in Green Bay, and 6 inches in Madison.
