A couple of recent incidents have area women a bit on edge.
Neillsville Police Chief Brad Lindner says there’s no need to panic, but commonsense safety measures should always be a priority.
There have been reports of a man following women near the City of Neillsville, stopping them and asking for directions, or simply staring at them. He drives a full-sized, blue pick-up truck.
Authorities know who the man is, but say he hasn’t yet broken the law; he has no criminal history.
There have been other reports of a male individual possibly following a woman in the Listeman Arboretum.
The developments even prompted Memorial Medical Center to issue a memo to their employees encouraging them to use the “buddy system” when going to their vehicles, be on guard and be aware of their surroundings.
