Shawano Police had a busy day yesterday responding to a range of incidents across the city.
Officers were called to Prime Powersports on East Green Bay Street just after one-thirty in the morning when a burglar alarm went off. Responders checked the building and found everything secure.
A short time later, police cleared a traffic hazard on County Road B near Industrial Drive — a dead deer in the roadway that appeared to have been struck overnight.
Around three o’clock, officers investigated an OWI incident at Walmart on East Green Bay Street, where a driver was taken into custody for operating while intoxicated.
Later in the morning, police checked on a suspicious red minivan parked behind the Aurora Health Center. The vehicle appeared to have front-end damage but was later cleared from the scene.
Officers also handled several 911 hang-ups, assisted paramedics on medical calls, and responded to a report of illegal burning on South Lafayette Street.
In the afternoon, Shawano Police dealt with two separate lewd behavior reports at Walmart — one involving a man urinating in the parking lot and another of a male walking through the store without pants. Officers located and removed the suspect.
And before midnight, police were called to a disturbance on South Sawyer Street and a domestic incident on East Maurer Street, both of which were resolved without major injuries.
