MARSHFIELD, WI (WSAU-WAOW) — An area police department has decided to have a little fun with the cold weather.
The Marshfield Police Department posted on their Facebook page this afternoon that read, “Due to the extreme and dangerously cold temps, all criminal behavior has been postponed and we are asking the doltish to stay in hiding until further notice.”
Marshfield Police Chief Rick Gramza says the department made the post to keep things light-hearted with the dangerous weather coming to the area. “We’re humans. You know we’re not a lot different then they are and we have a sense of humor. And we like to keep things light-hearted. Granted if there is criminal behavior going on we are going to respond. We’re going to handle it accordingly. It would be a great favor to us if nobody did anything for like the next two or three days.”
