The Fond du Lac County district attorney’s office is being questioned about the 500-dollar cash bond established for the man who was later accused of fatally wounding a firefighter. The judge originally set the bond at five-thousand dollars for Ruben Houston when he was charged with felony drug possession. When the bond was reduced, he posted it and walked free. Then, he was involved in the shooting 11 days later which killed firefighter Mitchell Lundgaard. Houston’s lack of a criminal record may have been a factor.
