GRAND CHUTE, Wis. (WFRV) – Authorities in Grand Chute say reports of shots fired inside a home led to a long negotiation with police Tuesday night that eventually ended in an arrest.
According to a release from the Grand Chute Police Department, officers responded at 7:24 p.m. to the 600 block of South Mayflower Drive after a caller reported shots being fired inside a home.

Additional officers were called to the scene and assisted with setting up a perimeter around the home and closing the roads in the nearby area.
