DODGE COUNTY, Wis. (WFRV) – A man from De Pere who is a suspect in an attempted homicide case from Shawano County was arrested after a pursuit with deputies in the southern part of Wisconsin on Saturday.
According to the Dodge County Sheriff’s Office, deputies were warned by the Shawano County Sheriff’s Office that the attempted homicide suspect may have fled south in a white Ford Focus.
Around 3 p.m. on May 25, a Flock Camera within Dodge County captured the suspect’s vehicle on USH 151 southbound. Deputies responded to USH 151 north of Beaver Dam along with officers from the Beaver Dam Police Department. Shortly after, a second Flock Camera captured the suspect vehicle southbound on County Highway A.
Deputies would then find the suspect vehicle, later identified as being driven by 31-year-old De Pere man Jordan K. Feemster, on STH 16/26 southbound near West Clymet Road in the Town of Clyman.
Feemster then allegedly took off at a high rate of speed, leading to a pursuit. Deputies say Feemster accelerated to around 125mph, almost hit two vehicles, and exited at STH 16 eastbound on the north side of Watertown.
