KENOSHA, WI (WLIP)–One person was arrested after police allege that he attempted to flee Tuesday.

It started with a traffic stop around 4:45 PM on 50th Street just east of 22nd Avenue in Kenosha.

Scanner reports indicated that the suspect fled on foot from the stop and was tasered after struggling with officers before he was arrested.

He now faces felonies for fleeing and eluding and causing injury to an officer while resisting arrest.


The St Elizabeth Parish office in downtown Kenosha is uninhabitable after a fire Tuesday.

The fire was reported shortly before 8:00 AM as the road near the building was closed for a time.

The cause of the fire is not known but the building has been undergoing renovations in recent months.

No injuries were reported.
