(Mayville) A Beaver Dam police officer has been ordered to pay a $578 fine after pleading no contest to Disorderly Conduct. The charges against William Linzenmeyer Jr. stem from an incident in February of 2017 when Watertown Police were interviewing his father, former Mayville Police Chief William Linzenmeyer Sr. The elder Linzenmeyer was being interviewed about another former Mayville Police Chief, Chris MacNeill who last fall pled to reduced misdemeanor charges of Forgery and Obstruction. MacNeill stepped down in March of last year after 17 years with the department. The 49-year-old altered documents in 2011 to help the family member of a former Mayville police officer get into the army, changing the report from being a “drug possession” case to a “medication violation.” Linzenmeyer Sr. initially brought the altered document to the attention of state investigators. During the course of the investigation, Linzenmeyer Sr. was interviewed about inconsistencies in the story and suffered a seizure. As investigators left the house, Linzenmeyer Jr. stopped their vehicle and began yelling obscenities about the mistreatment of his father. He was wearing his Beaver Dam Police uniform at the time. Linzenmeyer Jr. will not face disciplinary action from the city for the incident.
