La Crosse man, convicted in 1999 homicide, now facing drug charges and count of fleeing police

A La Crosse man, who spent 20 years in prison for reckless homicide, is facing new charges for incidents in the last two months.

Andrew Molzahn is accused of attempting to flee police back in April, and with possessing cocaine and meth during an arrest this week.
The La Crosse County District Attorney’s office said the 42-year-old Molzahn was involved in a chase and high-speed crash in the area of West Avenue in late April.
Then this week, Molzahn was arrested on drug charges, while riding in a car in the Onalaska area. He was given a $1,000 cash bond.
When Molzahn was 17, in May of 1999, he was charged with reckless homicide for the death of Richard Martin, after causing head injuries by hitting Martin with two 40-ounce bottles of beer inside a Holmen convenience store.
Molzahn was convicted and sentenced to 38 years in prison, but he was paroled in 2020 after serving 20 years.
