Editor struck by truck during Maywood Earth Ride still critical

The Sheboygan Press reports that Mark Dudzik remains in critical condition, nearly a week after suffering severe injuries during the Maywood Earth Ride.

Initial police reports said that Dudzik rolled through a stop sign near Elkhart Lake and into the path of truck traveling eastbound on Highway H. His wife questioned that scenario in an interview with the Southern Lakes Newspapers.

Dudzik, 42, of Franklin, worked for the chain of publications, as editor of the Waterford Post.

The father of two is being treated at Theda Clark Medical Center in Neenah.

An account has been set up to accept donations to help defray medical costs and support Dudzik's family.

Donations payable to "Friends of Mark Dudzik Benefit" may be sent to NorthShore Bank, 116 S. Pine St., Burlington, WI 53105.
