On April 20, 2025, at approximately 9:23pm, a Lake Hallie Police Officer responded to an address in the 4000 block of 131st after the Chippewa County Communications Center received a 911 call from an individual, identified as Scott Brun, (59 years old from Lake Hallie).
Brun gave little information and quickly ended the phone call. The Officer was in full uniform and a marked patrol vehicle, knocked on the front door with no response and knocked on the garage door. Brun came directly to the door while armed with a fully loaded handgun in his hand. Brun opened the door without saying anything and aimed the handgun directly at the officer. The officer was unable to announce his presence and was unable to complete a sentence before noticing the firearm being pointed at him after Brun opened the door.
A short struggle ensued, and the officer was able to quickly push the gun away, secure Brun’s hand with the gun in it, and drew his duty issued firearm and pointed it at Brun. The officer verbal commands and verbally identified himself as a Police Officer. Brun dropped the gun and was taken into custody. No one was injured and no shots were fired.
Brun had slurred speech, red bloodshot eyes, and had a very strong odor of an intoxicating beverage emitting from his person. Brun also provided a PBT of .24. As a result, Brun was arrested and charged with intentionally pointing firearm at law enforcement officer and armed while intoxicated. Afterwards, he was taken to the Chippewa County Jail for processing.
