POLK COUNTY -- The Court has sentenced a man for his conviction of 6th offense operating while intoxicated in Polk County.

DrydenWire previously reported in November 2019 that Perry Hochstetler, of Centuria, WI, was facing charges of 6th offense operating while intoxicated after Hochstetler’s vehicle was stopped by the Milltown Police Department for erratic driving. Results of a preliminary breath test showed Hochstetler’s breath alcohol to be .138.

At a hearing on December 11, 2020, the Court accepted Hochstetler’s plea of No Contest to the charge of Class G Felony 6th Offense OWI. His remaining charge was dismissed. The Court ordered a 3 year withheld sentence with probation and 1 year of conditional jail time. Hochstetler will be eligible for work release.
