A 47-year-old Janesville woman is facing a number of charges after an early morning traffic stop. Janesville police say they responded to the 100 block of East Racine Street about 3:30 a.m. Friday morning for a report of two unresponsive occupants in a vehicle parked near some gas pumps. Officers say the driver, Shawn M. Wethal, showed signs of impairment and submitted to some of the Standardized Field Sobriety tests before she tried to leave on foot. Police say Wethal also resisted officers who attempted to prevent her from leaving. Her charges include Operating While Intoxicated 5th Offense, Resisting an Officer, and Possession of THC.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled that a Department of Transportation driving record can serve as sufficient proof of a man s decades-old OWI conviction.
