KIEL, WI (WTAQ) – Authorities say they arrested a man during the private burial of slain Wisconsin State Trooper Trevor Casper.
Around 10:15 a.m. Monday, police officers noticed a 56-year-old Kiel man walk past the cemetery borders carrying a bag with something sticking out of it.
Officers went up to the man and questioned him. When they tried to take him away from the cemetery, he began to argue with the officers and physically resist them. Police said they had to use physical force to arrest the man.
He was taken to a Manitowoc hospital and then was cleared to be taken to the county jail.
It happened while family members were saying their final goodbyes to Casper, who was killed during a shootout with a bank robbery and murder suspect in Fond du Lac last Tuesday.
