Car Windows Smashed + Airsoft Gun Assault: Waukesha Police

WAUKESHA, WI — Waukesha police responded to several calls over the weekend, including a man smashing car windows with a gas tank, a man knocking on car windows asking for a ride home, a stolen bird bath and a college student reporting being shot with an airsoft gun.

A Carroll University student told police that a blue or light gray Jeep drove past her, yelled something inappropriate at her and shot her with an airsoft gun at the 200 block of N. Grand Avenue around 9:24 p.m. on Saturday, police logs showed. She didn't have any markings on her body, but she said she was certain it was from an airsoft gun.

Police stopped two cars full of youths with plastic guns designed to shoot Orbeez water pellets at the 1200 block of W. Sunset Drive around 11:46 p.m. on Saturday, police said. The kids in both cars said they weren't using them to shoot anybody and it's not clear if the stop was connected to the airsoft gun incident.

Police charged an unnamed man after he smashed the windows of a silver sedan with a propane tank at the 1000 block of Delafield Street around 12:09 a.m. on Tuesday, police logs showed. Someone called police to report a man and a woman fighting when the man used a gas tank to smash the back window of a car in a parking lot, but it's not clear who owned the car.

A person called police when he tried to enter their car while standing on the median near N. Moreland Boulevard and Summit Avenue around 11:04 p.m. on Monday, police logs showed. The caller said the man was "definitely impaired," and the man told police he couldn't read his credit card so he stepped into the lit intersection.

Still unable to read his card, the man knocked on a stranger's car window and asked for a ride home, police said. Officers helped him read his credit card and ordered him a Lyft home.

Someone called Waukesha police and told them their bird bath of 15 years was stolen from their backyard at the 2800 block of Madison Street on Monday, police said. The person didn't make a complaint, but said they were uncomfortable that someone may have by their bedroom window when they took the bath.

Waukesha police arrested a man after he evaded police and took them on a chase up to 100 mph on Monday. Police used stop sticks and their squad cars to ram his car off the road before arresting him outside the BP gas station on the 1600 block of Lincoln Avenue.
