Fugutive Arrested in Wyoming

37-year-old William Schwenke was wanted on a felony warrant for escape from the Sauk County Sheriff’s Department in Baraboo, Wisconsin.
Schwenke was stopped at the Hillsdale Interchange on Interstate 80 approximately 9 miles east of Cheyenne by a Trooper late Saturday evening as he drove eastbound up the westbound exit ramp.
When contacted by the Trooper Schwenke gave a false name and date of birth in an attempt to hide his real identity. The Trooper also found that the Wyoming registered vehicle Schwenke was driving was using fraudulent registration tags. No driving record or identification was found under the false name and Schwenke was placed under arrest. Schwenke has been charged with driving the wrong way on the Interstate, no valid driver’s license, fraudulent registration and interference with a peace officer. He will be held in the Laramie County Detention facility pending his extradition to the State of Wisconsin.
