A Rosemount man died Saturday after colliding with a fellow motorcyclist in Rock Elm Township in Wisconsin, the Pierce County Sheriff’s Office said in a media release.
The man was identified as David Rea, 54, and was pronounced dead at the scene. The other driver involved in the crash was Shawn Stuttgen, 48, from Eagan. According to the sheriff’s office, Stuttgen was transported by helicopter to Mayo Hospital in Eau Claire, Wis., with undetermined injuries.

Patrol Lieutenant Andrew Thoms said he did not have an update on Stuttgen’s condition Monday.
Rea was driving a 2013 Harley-Davidson motorcycle westbound on Wisconsin 72 about 4:30 p.m. when he struck Stuttgen’s motorcycle near County Road S in Rock Elm Township. Thoms said the drivers were traveling together.
The sheriff’s office is still in the early stages of investigating the crash, but it appears one motorcycle “turned into the other motorcycle,” Thoms said.
The Pierce County Sheriff’s Office was assisted on the scene by the Spring Valley Fire Department, Elmwood Fire and EMS, and Baldwin EMS.
