The body of Mentell, 27, of Waukegan, Ill., was found near his wrecked 2005 Jeep Monday morning. The vehicle had fallen down an embankment off Highway 39 near Moscow Road north of Blanchardville, the paper reported.
Mentell, who wasn’t wearing a seat belt, was thrown out of his Jeep after it went off the highway, went down the embankment and hit two trees, authorities said.
Mentell had acquaintances in Madison, Wis. He was originally from Texas, later moved and went to high school in Waukegan, where he was a talented speed skater. Mentell graduated from Northern Illinois University in DeKalb. The school recently gave him an award as a distinguished graduate of its fine arts program.
