Hearings Delayed For Former Police Officer
The former Waupun Police Lieutenant who went on a crime spree in early August won’t be making any pleas until next year. Forty-four-year-old Bradley Young of Brandon was scheduled to make appearances in Barron and Burnett County Courts this week, but both hearings were delayed. Young was accused of stealing a truck in Green Lake County after an attempted burglary and lead authorities on a high speed chase in Barron County. He then stole another vehicle near Rice Lake before he was captured after breaking into a cabin in Burnett County. He’s also suspected of breaking into grocery stores in Waupun, Berlin, and Markesan. A status conference is scheduled in Burnett County on March 4th and a plea hearing in Barron County on March 5th. A complaint was also filed in Green Lake County, but Young has made no court appearances there.
