TOWN OF CENTER — A car rear-ended a motorcycle and then drove off, the Outagamie County Sheriff's Office said Tuesday.

On Monday, the Sheriff’s Office said officers were dispatched to the intersection of CTY TK S and CTY TK EE in the Town of Center for a crash. The Sheriff's Office said a motorcycle with two people on it was stopped at the intersection when it was rear-ended by a car heading eastbound on CTY TK S.
