Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Criminal
Motor Vehicles – OWI — reasonable suspicion — seizure
Daniel A. Vogt appeals a judgment of conviction for driving under the influence of an intoxicant (OWI), first offense, contrary to Wis. Stat. § 346.63(1)(a), and an order denying his motion to suppress evidence. Vogt challenges the denial of his motion to suppress, arguing that any evidence obtained from his detention was obtained as a result of an illegal seizure. Because I conclude that the police officer’s contact with Vogt constituted a seizure, I reverse. This opinion will not be published.
