MONROE — A Mount Horeb man with five drunken driving convictions on his record was arrested again for the same offense during a traffic stop Sunday, June 2, near New Glarus. 

Joshua Dennis Potter, 38, was jailed on the sixth-offense felony charge of operating while under the influence of alcohol, according to the Green County Sheriff’s Office. He was also cited for speeding.

Deputies stopped Potter for speeding at about 8:30 p.m. Sunday in the N9500 block of Wis. 69, Town of New Glarus.

Court records show Potter has previously lived in Gratiot and Madison and has prior OWI convictions in Green County and Lafayette County. 

He was sentenced in 2010 in Dane County to eight months in jail and three years on probation for his fifth-offense OWI.
