A Mosinee man has pleaded not guilty to four felony counts in relation to a Rhinelander hit-and run crash that seriously injured an Antigo bicyclist.

According to court documents obtained through Langlade County Circuit Court, 30 year-old Joseph W. Thomas is charged with reckless driving, recklessly endangering safety, and hit-and-run involving great bodily harm. Thomas is accused of hitting 26 year-old Timothy Wissbroeker on July 5.

According to police reports the accident occurred shortly after 12:30 p.m. on State Highway 64 in the Town of Ackley. Vehicle parts found at the scene indicated that the offending vehicle was a 2007-2009 Honda CR-V sport utility vehicle. Wissbroeker sustained head injuries, several spinal fractures, a broken pelvis, a broken leg, and other internal injuries in the crash. He was transported to a Wausau hospital in critical condition, which has since been upgraded to fair.

A judge denied a motion by Thomas to lower his bond. He is due back in court on October 4.
