Wisconsin man struck by vehicle in Grant County dies from Injuries sustained in the crash

On April 6, 2026, the Grant County Sheriff's Office was notified that Alan Hensiak had passed away at the University of Iowa Hospital in Iowa City, due to complications from injuries he sustained in the March 27th crash.  

On March 27th, 2026, at 10:07 p.m., the Grant County Sheriff's Office Dispatch Center received a report of a possible multi-vehicle crash on HWY 151 at Hill Climb Road, near Dickeyville. Deputies and first responders were dispatched to the scene.  

When deputies and first responders arrived on scene, they learned, 79-year-old Alan Hensiak, of Union Grove, WI, had been driving his 2012 Dodge Ram on Hill Climb Road. When Hensiak attempted to enter the northbound lane of HWY 151, he struck a concrete barrier. After Hensiak's vehicle came to a rest, for an unknown reason he exited his vehicle and walked onto HWY 151.  

At that time, Jeffrey Weigel, 66, of Platteville, who was also traveling northbound, struck Hensiak with the side mirror and quarter panel of his 2016 GMC Yukon. 

Hensiak was transported to Mercy Medical in Dubuque, and ultimately transported by medical helicopter to Iowa City due to potentially life-threatening injuries. 

Weigel and his passengers were not injured and this incident remains under investigation. 

The Grant County Sheriff's Office was assisted at the scene by Dickeyville Fire and EMS, Jamestown Fire and First Responders, Platteville Police Department, UW Platteville Police Department, and Donnies Tire and Tow of Dickeyville.
