Marshfield Police Department

August 1

A Craigslist scam

At 8:02 a.m., a 33-year-old Marshfield man reported that he had seen his deceased brother’s home for rent on Craigslist. The home had just sold the day prior and the listing was not under the new owners names. The scammers had listed the home for rent stating that they would be living out of the country for a few years.  The police informed the man that this is a common scam used on Craigslist and to cease any contact with the scammers. The police officer made contact with the person placing the ad and requested they remove the ad, and the scammer hung up on the officer.

Wildlife lover

At 1:52 a.m., a Marshfield man contacted police after seeing a vehicle drive onto the UW-Marshfield/Wood County soccer fields. Large ruts were left throughout the field.

Information for a damage appraisal was sent to the UW.

Open 911 call leads to multiple arrests
