WI Firefighter Accused of Threatening Candidate

March 21, 2018
A Menomonee Falls firefighter says he was frustrated when he threatened a candidate for governor on Facebook.

Police say Menomonee Falls firefighter Nicholas Hager earlier this month posted a threat on the Facebook page of one of Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker's Democratic opponents.

The firefighter met with police and took responsibility for his actions, saying he was only venting his frustrations.
