Police Reports: Mysterious Golf Cart Driver

December 17

Security from Marshfield Medical Center called to report that a maintenance person went to a storage garage located near the intersection of Doege/Walnut. He noticed the service door appeared to be broken open. He then noticed a golf cart appeared to have been driven as there was dried dirt on the golf cart. Security stated they only wanted the incident documented. They had no estimate as to when the last time someone was in that garage as it seldom gets visited by maintenance. The security officer stated she would also be completing a security report.

Probation and Parole requested Marshfield PD to assist by taking a 29-year-old Marshfield male into custody for a probation violation. The male was arrested and transported to Marshfield PD for booking procedures and then transported to the Wood County Jail.

Officers were dispatched for a 35-year-old Marshfield male that was later pronounced deceased.

Officers responded to a report of a possible domestic incident from a report obtained by Human Services that had occurred during the evening hours of 12/12/20. Contact was made with the individuals reported to be involved. Officers separated both parties and learned that the child had overheard a conversation about an incident that was previously investigated by the Marshfield PD and had repeated that to the human services agent. Officers determined this was not a current incident and no further follow up was necessary.
