FOUNTAIN CITY, Wis. (AP) — Police say a food elevator at a Fountain City restaurant where a college student was found dead was functioning properly. Fountain City Police Chief Jason Mork says in a news release that the elevator system at WingDam Saloon and Grill was not damaged in Monday’s incident that left Brooke Baures dead. Mork says he and state elevator inspectors tested the food elevator’s speed, electrical system and motor. Mork says in his view, “the food elevator functioned as it was designed to.” The 21-year-old Baures was found in the food elevator Monday. She was a senior and a gymnast at Winona State University. Her death is still being investigated.
