Claim filed in off-duty Wis. officer rampage

CRANDON, Wis. — In claims filed this week, a lawyer accuses Tyler Peterson’s superiors in Forest County law enforcement of knowing he was prone to violence before he killed six people and himself in an Oct. 7 rampage.

The claims, filed on behalf of the parents of a victim, accuse Police Chief John Dennee and Sheriff Keith Van Cleve of failing to supervise and control Peterson, who was a full-time deputy and part-time officer
