Fuselier continued into Trempealeau County at speeds that reached 80 mph until officers lost him on Gilmeister Road and found his car in a ditch, the complaint stated.

Authorities from both counties followed footprints into a wooded area for more than one mile and across a creek before a deputy found Fuselier on the ground unable to get up because his prosthetic leg was stuck in a fence, according to the complaint.

Police found meth and a pipe in his car.

Oh My.

He didn’t lose it. It’s right where he left it.

His disability caused him to be caught.

He’s a VICTIM.

Pay him.

The funniest thing about this story to me?

Before he got stuck, the one-legged man was winning the footrace!

Wisconsin cops struggle to catch a one-legged man?

Sounds like its time to lay off the beer and the bratwursts to me.

Whelp - the straps didn’t hold and therefore according to regulation the medical device didn’t perform as intended.

Walking/running across a field is a foreseeable use of the device (even if pursued by the cops).

So he should file a complaint with the manufacturer, and then since the strap failure could foreseeably have resulted in a fall and injury they will have to file a Medical Device Report with the FDA.

That’s what we’ve come to - some doped up crook evades police and results in some poor engineer in a prosthetic company needing to report it to the federal government as a failure on their part. (sigh)

He’ll lose in court because he doesn’t have much of a leg to stand on.
