The community is supporting the victim, 16-year-old Trevor Le-Morrison. A fundraiser was held Saturday at St. Charles Borromeo.
"It's been a really great thing to do. I think it's been really healing for the classmates and feeling like they can actually do something to support his family," fundraiser organizer Jenny Sczesny.

Prosecutors accuse 34-year-old Walter Grebe of Muskego of hitting Le-Morrison with his Jeep before driving off – his vehicle later found parked at Potawatomi.
When questioned by investigators, Grebe said he had been at the volleyball tournament all day and "only had 2 drinks." He stated "the crash happened really quickly after he turned onto W. Loomis Road" and that "there seemed to be a party happening almost in the road and that he hit something."
