The Marathon County Sheriff’s Office is actively searching for Christopher Connors, a 38-year-old man wanted in connection with a high-speed vehicle pursuit that concluded in the Village of Rothschild, Wisconsin. Connors is wanted on felony charges including theft, battery, and disorderly conduct, which stem from an incident that occurred in Wausau earlier this week. The situation escalated on Interstate 39 when officers spotted Connors driving a vehicle. Although he initially pulled over, he fled as officers attempted to speak with him, leading to a chase through Kronewetter. The pursuit ended on Calumet Street in Rothschild, where Connors abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot. He was last seen at approximately 7:25 PM heading south. Since his disappearance, law enforcement has conducted extensive searches of the area utilizing drones and K-9 units. Connors is described as a Black man, standing 6 feet 2 inches tall and weighing approximately 220 pounds. At the time he was last seen, he was wearing a white shirt, white shorts with a multicolored pattern, and white shoes. Authorities state that Connors is not believed to be armed and pose no immediate danger to the public. The Marathon County Sheriff’s Office is urging anyone with information regarding Connors' whereabouts to contact them immediately. Residents who see Connors are asked to call 911 without delay. Those with tips or information can also reach the Marathon County Sheriff’s Office directly at 715-261-1200, option 1. The investigation remains ongoing as officers continue to scour the area for the suspect.
