After a physical altercation over payment, a Mt. Horeb business owner was arrested on charges of Disorderly Conduct and Physical Abuse of a Child.

Dane County Sheriff’s deputies were called to Bohn Road in the town of Vermont just before 6:00 pm on Monday, February 24th. The 911 caller had found a distraught teen walking on Bohn Road. Deputies contacted the 17-year-old male, who admitted to arriving at Tyrol Basin but not purchasing a pass. Staff immediately asked him to leave, to which he complied. As the teen was walking away from the property, the owner, Nathaniel T. McGree, and another staff member followed him off the property and physically assaulted him. McGree demanded that he return to the ski hill and pay $120.00 (twice the pass amount), and again he complied. 

McGree is currently held in the Dane County Jail for the above-mentioned charges.
