Fond du Lac man accused of abusing child before holding SWAT teams at bay has cash bond set

Bond was set at $10,000 yesterday for a 31-year-old Fond du Lac man who is accused of Intentionally causing harm to a child after a stand-off with threats to law enforcement brought out SWAT departments from both the City and County of Fond du Lac Monday.

In the early morning hours of Monday, an 11-year-old left an east Scott Street apartment building and called his mom advising her his dad, Robert Hall, was drunk and abused him. The mother called police and when they arrived at the apartment to talk to Hall, he made threats to them from behind a closed door. It was because of these threats that the special weapons and tactics teams were deployed.

After nearly two and a half hours, Hall came out of the residence holding one of his other children and swat members grabbed him. None of the other 3 children in the residence were harmed.

Hall is next due in court for a preliminary hearing June 13th.
