Text: ¶ 22 Here, the parties do not dispute that the only conduct that might have constituted a seizure was Wagner's activation of his police cruiser's emergency overhead lights while pulling up behind Kramer's legally-parked vehicle. While it is entirely possible that upon analysis this conduct may not constitute a seizure, see State v. Young, 2006 WI 98, ¶¶ 65-67, 294 Wis.2d 1, 717 N.W.2d 729, we do not decide this issue. Instead, for purposes of our analysis, we will assume, without deciding, that a seizure took place for which there was neither probable cause nor reasonable suspicion. Accordingly, the first step of the three-step test is satisfied.
