16-year-old shot stepbrother after a dispute about clothes at Miami home: police

A 16-year-old was arrested Tuesday after police say he shot his younger stepbrother in their Miami home over clothing. Around 4:40 p.m., the boys came home from school when the teen, who the Miami Herald is not naming due to his age, put on his 13-year-old stepbrother's clothes, an arrest report read. When the other young man found out, he asked him to take it off.

A family member took the 13-year-old to Jackson Memorial Hospital, where he's expected to make a full recovery, police said. The older teen was arrested, and detectives learned the Glock 21 he shot was reported stolen from a Dodge Challenger on the night of August 14. The teen was charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, possession of a firearm by a minor and grand theft of a firearm.

Police in Wisconsin respond to unusual home intrusion by 'masked bandits'

WAUSAU, Wis. (WFRV) – Police officers in central Wisconsin were faced with multiple 'masked bandits' while recently responding to what they called an unusual home intrusion report. In a post on social media by the Wausau Police Department, multiple 'masked suspects' were found inside a home on Wausau's east side, with two others later found loitering on the roof. Local artist helps capture WFRV Local 5's 70 years of news Officers say no arrests were needed, however, the raccoons were given a firm warning to vacate the premises, a warning police say was largely ignored. While this situation was not too serious, the police are using it to give the public an important reminder. First, to avoid raccoons being near or coming inside a home, residents should make sure to secure their trash cans, pet food, and bird feeders. They should also seal any possible easy access points of a home, like the attic, chimneys, or screens. If residents do encounter raccoons in or around their home, officials say not to approach the animals as they can bite or scratch if threatened and could be carrying diseases like rabies. Instead, residents should call a licensed wildlife removal service for safe and humane assistance or contact a local humane society or DNR office for additional guidance. These 'masked bandits' may look cute, but it's best to admire them from a distance! The Wausua Police Department Officers did add that if there is an immediate safety concern, residents can and should contact their local police department. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.

EC man charged with fifth drunken-driving offense

CHIPPEWA FALLS — An Eau Claire man accused of driving at three times the legal limit has now been charged with his fifth drunken-driving offense. Bryan K. Ranson, 51, 2502 Mountain View Place, was charged in Chippewa County Court with OWI-5, stemming from a July 13 arrest. He also was cited for refusing to take a test for intoxication. Ranson appeared in court, where he was released on a $500 cash bond. He will return to court Aug. 26. As terms of his release, he must take daily preliminary breath tests and he cannot consume alcohol or enter taverns. According to the criminal complaint, a Chippewa County deputy observed Ranson's car driving erratically on Highway X at 12:23 a.m. July 13, after Ranson had left a tavern parking lot. The officer stopped Ranson's car and observed signs of intoxication, such as slurred speech and glassy eyes. Ranson admitted he had consumed a few beers, but didn't keep count of how many. He failed field sobriety tests and was arrested. Ranson was taken to a nearby hospital for a blood draw. A test showed Ranson's blood-alcohol level was .288, more than three times the legal limit of .08. However, Ranson was on a court order to not drive with an alcohol level above .02 as a consequence of his prior convictions. Court records show Ranson was convicted of his fourth drunk-driving offense in Chippewa County in 2017. In that case, he was ordered to serve 29 days in jail and was placed on probation for three years, along with a requirement to perform 250 hours of community service and pay $4,300 in court costs and fines. He also was convicted of resisting an officer and felony-level bail jumping in 2017. Solve the daily Crossword
