Multiple people flee vehicle after crashing into Fond du Lac school yard

Law enforcement in Fond du Lac County have taken at least one person into custody after a brief vehicle pursuit overnight.

At 2:19 a.m., a North Fond du Lac officer attempted to make a traffic stop on a vehicle headed south on Prospect Avenue on the south end of the village. The vehicle accelerated in an attempt to elude the officer, continuing south into the City of Fond du Lac on Peters Avenue.

The vehicle crossed Johnson Street and crashed into the athletic field of Sabish Middle School.

At that time multiple people bailed out of the car and took off running. At least one was taken into custody after being found on a drone, hiding in the backyard of an area home.

A second of four total individuals was apprehended a short time later.

It was learned the four juveniles were illegally entering vehicles in the North Fond du Lac Village when the pursuit started. North Fond du Lac Police ask anyone that may have had vehicles entered, or items taken, to contact the police department.
