BELLEVUE, WI (WTAQ) — Law enforcement is on alert across the country ahead of potential protests around the inauguration of Joe Biden as President next Wednesday.
Brown County Sheriff Todd Delain joined sheriffs across the state in calling for calm next week.
Sheriff’s Lt. Kevin Pawlak says they’re not aware of any concerns surrounding local demonstrations.
“We just know there is a lot of tension out there,” Pawlak told WTAQ. “We understand that. If they want to assemble, we certainly support that, that’s part of the constitution, to peaceably assemble, but ‘peaceably’ is in there.”
