Description

¶1. This case involves the exigent circumstances exception to the general requirement that an officer have a warrant before making a nonconsensual entry into a home. A police officer entered Walter Leutenegger's garage without a warrant after receiving information indicating that Leutenegger was highly intoxicated and locating him in his car in his garage. Leutenegger was subsequently arrested, prosecuted, and convicted of driving while intoxicated. Leutenegger appeals, arguing that the circuit court should have suppressed evidence obtained after the officer entered his garage because that entry was illegal. We disagree and affirm the circuit court.
