JOE WURTZELBAKER STOPPED FOR SPEEDING RELEASED FOR "DWW" (DRIVING WHILE WHITE)
OHIO ATTORNEY GENERAL INVESTIGATES
TOLEDO, OHIO (NBC 24) – Joe the Plumber has had run-ins with John McCain and Sarah Palin in the past few days. He has also had a run-in with Toledo Police.
Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher was stopped by two Toledo police officers after he was clocked going 50mph in a 35 mph zone on Dorr St. last week.
Officers ran Wurzelbacher’s plates and asked for his license. It was then that the officer realized who he had pulled over. A second officer gave Wurzelbacher a verbal warning and released him.
A police report obtained by NBC24 states that the patrol unit did not issue a citation to Wurzelbacher because it felt doing so would have "negative repercussions to the department and city as a whole".
Just one day before the traffic stop, a Toledo Police clerk was charged with gross misconduct after allegedly performing an unlawful search of Wurzelbacher.
The Ohio Attorney General’s office has made an inquiry into why Wurzelbacher was not issued a citation since it was a legitimate traffic violation.
