On April 4, 2016 at 10:50 p.m. a town of Menasha police officer stopped a car for a traffic violation and while speaking with the driver he appeared to be under the influence of something.
The officer, who happens to be a drug recognition expert, had the driver perform a series of tests to gauge impairment. The driver was taken into custody for operating while impaired and a K9 unit was called to assist. The K9 alerted on the car which led to a search and the discovery of some drug paraphernalia and methamphetamine.
The driver, a 36-year-old Menasha man, was taken into custody for OWI – 5th offense and possession of methamphetamine as well as being issued citations for displaying unauthorized license plates and operating after revocation.
The man was taken to the Winnebago County Jail where some additional methamphetamine was discovered during the booking process.
