MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A Prairie du Sac man has been charged with homicide by drunken driving in the death of a motorcyclist in Dane County.

Gabriel Bare, 22, is accused of causing the Aug. 6 death of 46-year-old Troy Bronk, of Sun Prairie. Bronk was killed when he was struck while stopped at a traffic light in the Town of Springfield.

Bare had a blood alcohol concentration of 0.11% at the time of the crash, according to a criminal complaint.

Bail was set at $5,000 during a virtual court appearance in Dane County Circuit Court Monday, the State Journal reported.

Bare told a sheriff’s deputy he had two shots of vodka less than 45 minutes before the crash and said he felt impaired, the complaint said. Court records do not list an attorney for Bare.
