November 22, 2023 – Town of Addison, WI – On Tuesday, November 21, 2023, at 11:40 p.m. a Washington County Sheriff’s deputy attempted to stop the operator of a white Lincoln sedan traveling 100 mph on Hwy 33 near the Dodge County line. The vehicle’s operator attempted to flee and turned southbound on Hwy 175.
The operator crashed into a pine tree in the 5900 block of Hwy 175 and both occupants fled on foot. Sheriff’s deputies spent several hours attempting to locate the individuals utilizing a K9 and drones without success.
Identification inside the vehicle suggested the occupants were likely a 41-year-old female and a 40-year-old man, both from Madison. The female is on probation for 2nd-degree homicide and had an active warrant through the Department of Corrections. The man is on probation for Issuing Worthless Checks, OWI 3rd, Possession of Narcotics, and Bail jumping. He also had multiple warrants stemming from Milwaukee County as well as a warrant from Probation and Parole.
Two pipes that tested for cocaine were also located inside the vehicle.
Just prior to 9 a.m. today, November 22, 2023, the Washington County Emergency Communications Center received a 911 call from an address in the 5900 block of Hwy 175 reporting two subjects trying to break into her residence. The suspects attempted to gain entry through a bedroom window and the front door before walking towards the barn on the property.
The caller armed herself and took her daughter to the second floor of the home to monitor her property. She was aware of the incident from the previous evening.
Upon law enforcement’s arrival, searching assets were once again dispatched to the area. The first responding sheriff’s deputies checked the barn and did not locate the suspects.
While checking the area, a 21-year veteran deputy noticed a door to a garden shed ajar at an adjacent residence. Both suspects were located inside and were taken into custody.
The pair are being held in the Washington County Jail on the existing warrants and local charges that include Criminal Trespass to Dwelling (X2), Criminal Damage to Property, Burglary, and Possession of Methamphetamine.
