Police recover gun from robbery

Thursday, January 12, 2012

The gun used in a Wausau Credit Union robbery this week may have been a pellet gun.

Wausau police have found a weapon believed to have been used by David Samuelson when he allegedly robbed the Tower Credit Union Tuesday afternoon. It's an Airsoft pistol that looks like a real gun but actually fires plastic pellets.

The pistol was found along with a cap, glove and money near the Wisconsin River where Samuelson was found hiding after the robbery.

He is currently in the Marathon County Jail and is expected to appear in court today.
