Multi-jurisdiction chase leads to Grand Avenue crash, arrests 


Several people have been arrested from a crash that resulted from a high-speed pursuit from Kronenwetter into Wausau last week. 

Police arrested Cody Mayottee, 23 of Antigo, after police say he led them on a dangerous chase from Kronenwetter to Grand Avenue, where he crashed into another car near the Wausau Police Department. 

Officers were at a Kronenwetter residence around 8 pm Aug. 24 to execute an arrest warrant on Bryse Drake, 22 of Mosinee, when they say they saw Drake get into Mayotte’s vehicle. Police ordered the SUV to stop, the complaint says, but instead Mayotte took off, leading police on a chase. Mayotte nearly hit a parked car and sometimes veered into oncoming traffic in the pursuit. 

Mayotte crashed his vehicle into another, injuring people in th vehicle. He and Drake were arrested, as was another man encouraging them to run from officers after the crash. 

Mayotte is being held on a $50,000 cash bond and faces charges of fleeing an officer resulting in bodily harm or property damage, aiding a felon, second degree recklessly endangering safety among other lesser charges. Drake is being held for transport to another county.
