POTOSI, Wis. – The Grant County Coroner's Office notified the Grant County Sheriff's Office Saturday that Cameron Schaefer, 22, of Dickeyville died from injuries sustained in a fatal car crash on Aug. 18.

On August 18, the sheriff's office received a report of a two-vehicle crash with serious injuries on Highway 61 at the intersection with County B.
