According to Lake Geneva Regional News, “Whitewater man steals XBOX from an apartment, faces burglary charge after lengthy process: Owen W Peroutka Kress, 27, of 100 block N Fremont St., Whitewater, has been charged with burglary of a building or dwelling. On April 29, 2022, Whitewater police were dispatched to an apartment in the City of Whitewater for a burglary complaint. The resident said he heard his door slam while he was sleeping. When he woke up, he noticed his Microsoft Xbox Series S was missing. Security footage at the apartment complex showed a man wearing orange shorts, a dark colored baseball hat, a black shirt, and a tan jacket enter the apartment. On Nov. 3, 2022, an officer conducted an internet search to determine the IP address where the XBOX was logging in from. The officer completed a subpoena for records at Charter Communications for all account holder information of the IP address. On Feb. 23, 2023, the officer received the subpoena results from Charter Communications that listed Owen W Peroutka Kress, the defendant, with the IP address. A search warrant was done three days later at the defendant’s apartment where they found the XBOX in the living room, a driver’s license belonging to Peroutka-Kress and the tan jacket seen in the security footage.”

Per Wisconsin Circuit Court Access, Peroutka Kress is charged with burglary – building or dwelling, a felony. His preliminary hearing is scheduled for April 17, 2023. A charge is merely an accusation and a defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proved guilty.
