On December 24th, 2024 the Dunn County Sheriff's Office lost one of its own. Correctional Officer Jeff Reynolds was Westbound on US Hwy 12/ State Hwy 29 at 02:44 a.m. enroute to fill a shift at the Jail when his vehicle was struck by a Northbound vehicle on Cth E that failed to stop at the posted stop sign. Jeff began his career with the Sheriff's Office in 2007 and was a valued member who will be missed greatly. The operator of the striking vehicle, 40 year old Michael A. Sokolowski of Eau Claire, has been charged with Homicide by Intoxicated Use of a Vehicle and is currently being held at the Eau Claire County Jail. Three other passengers in his vehicle, including his wife, were also injured in the crash. Sokolowski had his initial appearance today and Dunn County Judge Wagner issued a $75,000 Cash bond. The crash investigation is being conducted by the Wisconsin State Patrol. The Sheriff's Office would like to thank the Wisconsin State Patrol, Menomonie Fire Department and Menomonie Police Department for their support and assistance.
