Motor Vehicles
OWI; stop and detention
Arlie Grenie appeals his conviction for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of an intoxicant as a second offense. He challenges the denial of his motion to suppress evidence, arguing that there was no basis for his initial stop. Grenie’s specific contention is that the evidence does not support the circuit court’s finding that Grenie’s Jeep had blue lights lit on its front, which, if true, would have been a valid reason to stop him. I affirm. This opinion will not be published.
