231 Wis.2d 14 (1999)

604 N.W.2d 575

Ryan DEHNEL, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. STATE FARM MUTUAL AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE COMPANY, Defendant-Respondent, WEA INSURANCE CORPORATION, Defendant.

Court of Appeals of Wisconsin.

Decided September 30, 1999.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

On behalf of the plaintiff-appellant, the cause was submitted on the briefs of David E. Sunby of Habush, Habush, Davis & Rottier, S.C. of Wausau.

On behalf of the defendant-respondent, the cause was submitted on the brief of Claude J. Covelli of Boardman, Suhr, Curry & Field LLP of Madison.

Before Eich, Vergeront and Roggensack, JJ.


ROGGENSACK, J.

Because we conclude that no hit-and-run occurred when Ryan Dehnel's vehicle was struck by ice that dislodged from an unidentified semitrailer as it passed him, the semitrailer was not an uninsured vehicle for which coverage was required by Dehnel's automobile liability policy with State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company. Therefore, we affirm the circuit court's dismissal of Dehnel's claim against State Farm.
