Milwaukee police say a motorcyclist killed in an overnight crash is a city alderman.
Authorities say 56-year-old Joseph Dudzik died after his Harley-Davidson motorcycle hit some construction barricades on the city’s southwest side about 11:30 p.m. Thursday. Dudzik was taken to a local hospital where he died from his injuries.
Dudzik was elected to the Milwaukee Common Council in 2002 and represented the 11th District. He worked for the city’s public works department for more than 20 years.
He’s survived by his wife and two sons.
