Man hit on head with handgun
A 70-year-old Prairie du Chien man has been charged in Crawford County Circuit Court with one count of substantial battery.
Marlan McCune faces up to 3.5 years of imprisonment and a $10,000 fine if convicted.
According to the criminal complaint, a Sheriff’s Department deputy responded to Crossing Rivers Health for a report of battery.
A man stated that McCune had gotten angry with him about going to work late the past couple of days. McCune got a handgun and pointed it at the man, the complaint said. McCune then hit the man on the forehead with the barrel of the handgun, according to the complaint.
The man then drove himself to Crossing Rivers Health and received eight stitches to close the wound.
