Buffalo Student Remembered After Fatal Crash

(WCCO) A 17-year-old is dead after a Saturday night crash in St. Michael, Minn.

The Wright County Sheriff's office said Jon Kramnic's car collided with a pickup driver on County Road 35 near Jamison Avenue.

Students at Buffalo Senior High School are in shock and some could not hold back tears for their fellow student, funny man, scholar and athlete who is now gone.

"At the high school they have the rock that the students usually go out and express their feelings and their emotions," said Laura Barta, district spokesperson.

Students used the rock to speak to Jon one more time.

School administrators spent most of the Sunday contacting teachers, staff and counselors to tell them what happened and to put a plan in place to help students cope with their loss.

"He was all conference soccer and just an all around good kid. He also worked on the newspaper and he was just well liked by all of his friends and teachers. So, he was just a really good student at the high school who will be greatly missed," said Barta.

The 44-year-old driver of the other vehicle involved in the crash is in critical condition at Mercy Hospital.

The Wright County Sheriff's department is investigating the accident.
