Wisconsin State Trooper detained by ICE
The trooper has been released. FOX6 News Milwaukee's report on a Wisconsin State Trooper detained by ICE includes that important update: Carel Aaron Van Der Merwe is no longer being held in immigration detention in Dodge County.
That report is drawing the strongest daily audience among the station's active videos, while its investigation into a fatal motorcycle crash remains the most watched of the week's new uploads. In that piece, reporter Bret Lemoine brings together a father's memories of his son, surveillance footage and an attorney's explanation of Wisconsin's parental exception to underage drinking laws. Police say the bartender served her son before the crash; the report says prosecutors are reviewing the evidence.
Across fifteen uploads, the station also covered the fatal West Bend home shooting, Milwaukee's proposed study of a utility takeover and high school football playoffs, including West Bend West against Union Grove.
The channel collected about a million views over the week and added roughly a thousand subscribers. Its daily viewing is modestly above its usual pace. Among nearby local-news peers, WPBF 25 News and KTVU FOX 2 San Francisco drew substantially larger weekly audiences, while LOCAL 12's total was close to FOX6's. For FOX6, the trooper report and the bar investigation are supplying the strongest daily attention.
