Police Beat: A Missing Bumper, Outstanding Warrants and Marijuana Land Two in Police Custody

If you have outstanding warrants and decide to carry marijuana in the vehicle, it’s often a good idea to drive in a vehicle with both bumpers.

Justin Walkush, 27, and Jeremy Kemnitz 35, were pulled over by police at 9:03 a.m. March 7 in the 16400 block of U.S. Hwy. 41. The men were driving in a Cadillac sport utility vehicle lacking a front bumper.

Walkush, the driver, had an outstanding warrant with the Grand Rapids Police Department for contempt of court. Walkush was also on probation. Kemnitz had a warrant through the West Allis Police Department for an OWI offense.

Upon searching the vehicle, officers discovered a clear baggie containing marijuana and a blue metal pipe also containing marijuana.

Both men were brought to the Menomonee Falls Police Department for booking of their respective warrants, and Kemnitz received an additional citation for possession of marijuana.
