Police Arrest 11 Sex Offenders in Milwaukee During Halloween Trick or Teating

In Milwaukee, this past Sunday 11 sex offenders were arrested for violation parole and probation during trick-or-treat hours. Officers visited almost 100 homes to make sure that the most dangerous sex offenders weren't passing out candy to children.

At one of the guy's house they found candy and children toys, which is prohibited after his 2004 conviction of second-degree sexual assault of a child. Officers used a taser to arrest the man after he argued with the police. He could face possible charges of probation violation and resisting arrest.

Sex offenders are reminded of their restrictions before Halloween and sometimes they have to sign contracts and have random checks done.
