KIEL, WI (WTAQ) – Wisconsin law enforcement officers made their annual runs to Stevens Point to raise funds for the Special Olympics.
Those who left from Sheboygan had an extra special mission. They stopped in Kiel at the grave of Trevor Casper — the state trooper killed in a shootout with Steven Snyder in March during a crime spree that included another murder and a bank robbery.
Over 50 law enforcement officers and relatives of Casper’s paraded for about a mile through Kiel, before laying a wreath at the trooper’s grave.
The group then continued their run to Stevens Point, joining other officers from throughout the state in Thursday’s opening of the Wisconsin Special Olympics.
