A Pound man was killed in a single vehicle accident in the Town of Stephenson Friday night (3/21/25).

Marinette County Sheriff Randy Miller reports that at 7:52 p.m., Marinette County Dispatch received a report of a one-vehicle crash on West 32nd Road at 49th Road in the Town of Stephenson. Miller says a vehicle operated by Edward J. Van Caster JR, age 53, of Pound was traveling east on West 32nd Road when he failed to stop for the stop sign, entered the ditch, and ultimately ended up crashing into a tree. Van Caster, who was not wearing a seatbelt, sustained fatal injuries.  Speed appears to have been a factor in the crash that remains under investigation by the Marinette County Sheriff’s Office and the Marinette County Medical Examiner’s Office. Also assisting Marinette County deputies at the scene were members of the Pound Fire Department and Crivitz Rescue.
