A Waukesha man was pulled over for unsteady driving, and he had a pretty good reason. Welcome to OMG PD.
If you think nothing interesting ever happens in the burbs, think again. Patch is highlighting some of the more unusual crime news from throughout southeastern Wisconsin in our feature, "OMG PD." The best answer ever to “Do you know why I pulled you over?” And on the third day, he just kind of laid around and ate cold pizza A “small object” that “moved about” in the “groin area,” said the report. Wisconsin is tough on drunk drivers, said the guy who was drunk. A bus driver from Oak Creek has quite a story to tell the grandkids. Greenfield police are cursed with great SEO. _____________________ The above items are from reports from local police departments. In all incidents where an arrest occurred, a charge is merely an …

One man’s Valentine’s Day turned out less than romantic. Here is our weekly weird crime roundup, OMG PD.
If you think nothing interesting ever happens in the burbs, think again. Patch is highlighting some of the more unusual crime news from throughout southeastern Wisconsin in our feature, "OMG PD." Can we all at least agree a little gun control here would have been a good idea? “Your Valentine’s Day surprise is in the garage, dear.” We now know what the “Guess Your Weight” folks from the fair are doing in the winter. What’s my emergency? Dude’s in my parking space. By February, you’d think we’d all have honed our winter driving skills. _____________________ The above items are from reports from local police departments. In all incidents where an arrest occurred, a charge is merely an accusation and not evidence of guilt. The arrested person …

What seems like a boyish prank looks a bit more disturbing when pre-teen curses ice cream shop manager, resists and obstructs police, and turns out to already have an arrest warrant.
At 10 a.m. last Thursday, a 12-year-old Milwaukee boy was arrested for disorderly conduct after he opened a fire extinguisher in the basement at Ted’s Ice Cream and Restaurant, 6204 W. North Ave. The manager said that two boys had come in and went to use the rest room in the basement. He heard laughter, and the boys came running up the stairs and out the door. The manager smelled what he thought was smoke, and he ran after them. He saw they were heading for a county bus at the corner of 62nd Street and called police. One of the boys, he said, turned around and shouted profanities at him, and said, “What the … you gonna do about it?” Police stopped the bus and questioned three boys. Another 12-year-old, they said, was respectful and …

It’s a good bet this guy wasn’t pledging a fraternity. An angry shopper unknowingly came up with the name for Eminem’s Christmas CD. “Hey, want to join me in the 306.7 section of the Dewey Decimal System?” Greenfield paramedics rescued a man from a possible drug overdose, and you’ll never believe what he actually consumed. _____________________ The above items are from reports from local police departments.

Store know for saucy lingerie can’t seem to keep it from some suspected shoplifters. Welcome to our weekly weird crime roundup, OMG PD.
If you think nothing interesting ever happens in the burbs, think again. Patch is highlighting some of the more unusual crime news from throughout southeastern Wisconsin in our feature, "OMG PD." Victoria might have a secret, but she’s running out of merchandise. “And now it’s the couple’s first dance to their song, ‘Mama Said Knock You Out.’” How can it be prostitution when there was, according to the principals involved, no money paid for sex that didn’t happen? Police in Sturtevant could have called in the B-team to track down this suspected thief. You know this was a virus and scam because they’re only “charging” $30. Positive ID wasn’t terribly positive for a woman shopping in Greenfield. Ditto for a suspected shoplifter in Mount …

A woman accused of shoplifting from a Walmart made a memorable statement as security officers stopped her.
If you think nothing interesting ever happens in the burbs, think again. Patch is highlighting some of the more unusual crime news from throughout southeastern Wisconsin in our feature, "OMG PD." Suddenly, the idea of a Walmart greeter seems awfully quaint. Instagram lets you share your photos with the world, a world which includes members of the law enforcement community. No, leave the 8-inch furry slippers on. One bar patron in Port Washington sure proved the bartender right. _____________________ The above items are from reports from local police departments.
