TOWNSHIP OF SCANDINAVIA, Wis. — What starts as a call to an underage drinking party ends with a short vehicle pursuit by Waupaca County Sheriff’s deputies, damage to a patrol vehicle and a 21-year-man under arrest.
Sheriff’s deputies were called to a location on Bestul Road in the township of Scandinavia at 10:25 p.m. Friday. That followed reports of underage drinking, which was preceded by a Snapchat invite to about 300 youths and further reports of windows breaking.
Upon arrival the suspect took off in his vehicle, struck a patrol car and led pursuing deputies on a short chase. That ended when the suspect struck a power pole and rolled his vehicle.
The 21-year-man was taken into custody, treated for minor injuries and booked into the Waupaca County Jail. The suspect’s name has not been released.
