TOWN OF SUPERIOR, WI (KDAL) – Douglas County Sheriff Deputies have taken a 13 year old boy into custody following an incident in the Town of Superior Tuesday afternoon.
The Sheriff’s office responded to a report of an out of control juvenile who was throwing and breaking things in the 5000 block of Highway 35.
When deputies arrived, the suspect was on the back porch and said deputies would have to shoot him.
He went into the house and emerged with a long gun. During the next hour he fired at least four shots in the direction of deputies who had taken up positions around the house.
At one point, the suspect came out of the house wearing a tactical vest but without the gun and was seen entering a garage. He was taken into custody at that time.
There were no injuries and Sheriff Izzard commended the deputies for bringing the incident to a peaceful conclusion in what could have been a tragic outcome.
