On June 10, 2023, in Watertown, Wisconsin, an on duty officer was involved in a pursuit of a vehicle that was involved in a hit and run incident earlier in the day. The pursuit was eventually terminated, however, a thorough description was given of the vehicle and driver. After speaking with the registered owner and viewing security footage from the residence, the driver was identified. Officers located the driver, named Austin, who reportedly suffered from mental health issues and attempted to speak with him about the incident that occurred. Austin was immediately argumentative and repeatedly stated he did not drive the vehicle despite officers stating they had multiple pieces of evidence, including a verbal interview with the registered owner of the vehicle and security footage of Austin getting out of the vehicle.
