Motor Vehicles – OWI — extra-territorial jurisdiction — fresh pursuit
Michael D. Deignan appeals from a judgment of conviction for operating a vehicle while under the influence of an intoxicant, as a first offense, in violation of Wis. Stat. § 346.63(1)(a). Deignan contends that his arrest was not lawful because the arresting officer did not have authority to arrest Deignan outside the Village of Spring Green. I conclude that the arresting officer was engaged in fresh pursuit under Wis. Stat. § 175.40(2) and therefore was authorized to perform the arrest. Accordingly, I affirm. This opinion will not be published.
