A man in Fond du Lac was arrested after fleeing from police on foot over the weekend.
Yesterday (February 9th) just after 11:30 p.m., officers with the Fond du Lac Police Department observed a male suspect known to have warrants out for his arrest in the area of North Peters Avenue and West Scott Street.
The suspect, a 29-year-old man from Fond du Lac, was seen entering the front passenger seat of a vehicle.
Additional officers responded to the area to assist as the 29-year-old was connected to several crimes.
A traffic stop was initiated on the vehicle which pulled into the parking lot of the Lakeside Garden Apartments.
