N. Lake St. @ State St.Arrested
Dustin D. Skinner, age 21, Waukesha, WIMr. Skinner was arrested for Possession of Heroin, Possession of Drug Paraphernalia, and Theft.
Details
A Waukesha man said he shot heroin in downtown Madison Wednesday afternoon, and 20-minutes later determined he needed more of the drug. To obtain funds, he grabbed the tip jar off of the Banzo food cart, which was set-up in the Library Mall. An employee gave chase. At that very moment, a MPD officer was at the intersection of N. Lake St. and State St. on routine patrol. He was in the right place at the right time and took over for the food cart employee. The suspect was tracked down as he headed toward Lake Mendota. He was taken to a hospital and then to jail.Released 05/17/2012 at 10:49 AM by PIO Joel DeSpain
