Stephenson man arrested after parking lot crash and camper fire

IRON MOUNTAIN, Mich. (WBUP/WJMN) – A suspect is in custody after two separate incidents Sunday night and early Monday in Dickinson and Menominee counties. The Michigan State Police (MSP) Iron Mountain Post assisted the Iron Mountain Police Department at about 7:07 p.m. Sunday, November 8, as officers tried to locate a suspect who allegedly struck another person with his vehicle in the Walmart parking lot in Iron Mountain. The victim was taken by ambulance to a local hospital, where they received treatment and were released with non-life-threatening injuries. Initial efforts to find the suspect after that incident were unsuccessful. At about 1:57 a.m. Monday, November 9, troopers from the Iron Mountain Post were dispatched to a reported arson of a camper at a residence on County Road 577 in Menominee County. Investigators believe the two incidents are connected and that the same suspect committed both. At about 9:50 a.m. Monday, troopers and deputies from the Menominee County Sheriff's Office took the suspect into custody without incident. The suspect, a 21-year-old man from Stephenson, is being held in the Dickinson County Jail. Police are not releasing his name until he is arraigned. Authorities will share more information when it becomes available.

Staffing shortfall puts court collections work under scrutiny

MARINETTE — A staffing shortage in the Marinette County Clerk of Circuit Court’s office is delaying new submissions to Wisconsin’s state debt collection program, prompting committee members to question the financial impact and discuss ways to help. At the public safety committee’s Tuesday meeting, Clerk Carrie Brazeau described an office struggling to retain employees while managing a growing workload. Brazeau said the last state debt collection submission was completed in late January, covering December’s work. “I do not have the staff to keep up with the work,” Brazeau told the committee. The program collects qualifying debts owed to the county, with the state taking a commission from the amounts it recovers. Supervisor Peter Noppenberg said the county figures showed $945,071 collected through the program in 2025. He estimated that delays in sending new files could mean “approximately $79,000 in income every month is not being pursued.” Brazeau cautioned that the figures for submissions and collections were different. Money collected in a given month may come from cases submitted years earlier, she said and sending a file does not mean the county will receive payment immediately. “There is a difference between how much you submit and how much you actually receive,”

Mursaus bring hometown grocery model to Peshtigo

PESHTIGO — A new Piggly Wiggly in Peshtigo is bringing fresh food, new jobs and a familiar small-town approach to the former Lofaro’s Fresh Market space. For owners Chad and Tiffany Mursau, the expansion builds on nearly five years of operating their Coleman store. They saw promise in Peshtigo and an opportunity to serve a community that was losing its previous grocery operator. “We just saw potential here with all the support,” Chad Mursau said. The couple’s approach he added is to be community driven. The opening comes after a change in the store’s supply arrangements. Mursau said C&S had bought SpartanNash, which supplied Lofaro’s and the previous owner was no longer interested in operating in Peshtigo. The Mursaus saw a chance to take over the location and bring their grocery business to town. They want the store to feel welcoming as well as useful. Asked how he would describe their hometown grocery model, Chad Mursau emphasized “just friendly service,” while Tiffany Mursau echoed the importance of being community driven. Renovations have given the store what Mursau called “a fresh, clean look,” along with a new salad bar and wing bar. The store also offers produce, bakery, deli, meat, dairy,

Deer hunting means big bucks for sporting goods business

For Tom Schaal, this is the calm before the storm. It was relatively quiet in his store — Northwoods Sporting Goods — on a Thursday afternoon in late September, but that won’t be the case in late November before and during Wisconsin’s gun deer season, which kicks off Nov. 21 and runs through Nov. 29.
