'Active scene' resolved in Sturgeon Bay, as Door County Sheriff's Office provides update
The Door County Sheriff's Office responded to an "active scene" on the west side of Sturgeon Bay on July 16, but did not release any information about exactly what happened or who was involved.
A post on the sheriff's office's Facebook page indicated they responded to the incident late that morning near South Duluth Avenue in the area of West Spruce Drive, which leads to the back entrance of the Target department store, and the road that leads from South Duluth to Target's main entrances. Several apartment buildings are between South Duluth and Target.
The Facebook post further asked drivers and pedestrians to stay clear of the area.
The Let's Go Door County social media Facebook page reported "heavy police, SWAT, EMS and Fire" teams responded to the scene.
The sheriff's office posted an update at 2 p.m. saying the situation had cleared and people no longer needed to stay out of the area, without providing any details on the situation. Contacted by the Door County Advocate, Chief Deputy Kyle Veeser said the office isn't planning to release information "out of respect for the people involved."
