Saturday, April 17,1971 The Post-Crescent B-5 Chest Injuries Cause First Traffic Death in Appleton During '71 A former Marine, who survived battle wounds in Vietnam was killed Friday night when his motorcycle and a truck collided at Wisconsin Avenue and Rankin Street. The victim was Nicholas F. Micke, 24, route 3, Kaukauna. Micke, dead on arrival at Appleton Memorial Hospital, died of a massive internal hemorrhage caused by crushing chest injuries, according to Outagamie County Coroner Bernard H. Kemps. It was the first death on Appleton streets this year. Appleton police said Micke was traveling east on Wisconsin when his 1971 cycle apparently slid into the right front of the truck which was turning onto Rankin from Wisconsin. The truck was operated by Robert J Voecks, 28, 826 E. South St. Voecks was en route to the Appleton Coated Paper Co. to unload pallets. Voecks told authorities the accident occurred moments after he passed Micke who was stopped alongside the road. Police said the motorcycle left about 20 feet of skid marks before impact. The accident occurred about 10:40 p.m. Micke's death raised Outagamie County's 1971 traffic toll to 4, compared to 8 on this date a year ago. Funeral arrangements are being handled through the Greenwood Funeral Home in Kaukauna.
