Wausau Police issued a be on the lookout for Calloway in late October, saying he was wanted for multiple felony counts related to a domestic violence incident. That came after he escaped through a bathroom window of a Wausau apartment as officers were escorting a woman back to the unit to retrieve some belongings.
Investigators say Calloway had threatened to shoot the woman multiple times, holding a gun to her head in at least one incident. He had also been accused of stealing her phone and car keys to prevent her from getting help.
