SHEBOYGAN, WI (WHBL) - A Sheboygan man is facing his fifth OWI offense following a traffic stop in the city last weekend. 43 year old Kevin Giese was charged Monday after his vehicle was stopped by Sheboygan Police last Saturday.
According to the criminal complaint, an officer noticed the vehicle speeding on the city’s north side, and that the owner of the vehicle had a suspended license. When approached by the officer, the driver - Giese - reportedly said he thought the stop was for his vehicle’s muffler.
Giese also admitted to drinking alcohol when asked by the officer. Following field sobriety tests, plus a preliminary breath test of point-22, Giese was taken into custody.
He now faces up to six years in prison if found guilty of the OWI offense.
