CADILLAC – According to a statement from the Michigan State Police (MSP), on Nov. 1 a trooper from the Cadillac Post was called to a residence on N 41 ½ Road in Cedar Creek Township for a report of damaged property.
The trooper arrived and spoke with the resident, who stated he wanted to pursue
charges against his brother for spray painting a swastika and words on the home where he lives. The home is owned by their mother.
The mother said she was in the process of evicting her son, 37-year-old Brandon James Wetterman and was seeking a personal protection order against him.
Wetterman has been damaging siding on the home, stolen items from the residence, and damaged vehicles in the driveway.
A report was turned over to the Wexford County Prosecutor’s Office and an arrest warrant was issued Dec. 6. Wetterman was later arrested and lodged in the Wexford County Jail.
Wetterman was arraigned last week in the 84th District Court in Wexford County on one count Malicious Destruction of Building Over $1,000 but less than $20,000.
His bond was set at $5,000 cash surety. His next scheduled court appearance is on Jan. 3, 2024, at 10:00 a.m.
