APPLETON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — A drone team was deployed over an Appleton neighborhood to search for a suspect with multiple warrants, including second-degree reckless endangering safety.

On Wednesday afternoon, Appleton police officers working with the U.S. Marshals Service, conducted a planned arrest operation in the 200 block of W. Calumet Street.

During the operation, Isaiah M. Hipp, 21, of Appleton, attempted to flee, so the drone team was deployed, and traffic was briefly impacted due to a road closure.

Hipp was taken into custody.
