Tomahawk man to face charges following jail damage

Tuesday, December 27, 2011

A Tomahawk man will face additional charges after he damaged the holding cell at the Lincoln County Jail.

Deputies responded to a disturbance at a town of Wilson home at just after 7, Christmas Eve. A male victim was injured in the matter, but refused an ambulance.

Brandon Kallerud was arrested on charges of battery and disorderly conduct. He was brought to the Lincoln County Jail where he was placed in a holding cell. A short time later he tore the sprinkler head off the ceiling causing water to flow out and set off the fire jail fire alarm system.

Additional charges of disorderly conduct, criminal damage to property and intentionally sounding a false fire alarm were added. He will have a bond hearing this afternoon in Lincoln County Court.
