An attempted escape of foot leads to an eventual arrest for two people.
It was approximately 2:45 on Tuesday morning (November 4th) when Wisconsin State Patrol Trooper attempted to stop a vehicle for speeding on I94 just west of US 63. The vehicle fled from the trooper, heading south on US 63 from I94. The fleeing vehicle turned down a dead-end road leading to a farm. The vehicle drove around a large barn, and then rammed the trooper’s squad. Two subjects ran away from the crash.
The driver was taken into custody by the trooper after a short foot pursuit. The passenger was later taken into custody by the St. Croix County Sheriff’s Department. The incident is still under investigation, but both subjects are being held on drug, weapons and assault charges.
