1/21/12 – Authorities in Dodge County responded to numerous runoffs throughout the day yesterday and at least personal injury accident. There were three runoffs reported Saturday morning between 3:15am and 4am and all three may have been alcohol-related. The first runoff happened on Highway 68 in the Town of Trenton. Two passengers were sitting in the back seat after the driver had apparently taken off on foot and was later apprehended. A 24-year-old Beaver Dam woman was transported to the hospital for a legal blood draw. Five minutes later, deputies were called to a car in a ditch on Woodland Road in the Town of Herman. A 49-year-old man was cited for his first OWI with a blood alcohol level over twice the legal limit. A half-hour later, another runoff this time on Highway 175 in the Town of Theresa, where a truck was trying to pull a van out of the ditch. A 64-year-old Theresa man, who owned both vehicles, had a blood alcohol level that was just over the legal limit for driving.
