No word on what this is about and it was over by the time I got around to posting it but since it is a little town in Wisconsin most people probably never hear of, I thought I would post in the hopes that there will be some follow-up.

The standoff was prompted by a man who changed his mind about selling his motorcycle, a Green Bay lawyer and friend of the owner of Eagle Nation Cycles told the Journal Sentinel.
Attorney Cole White, who had been receiving calls and text messages from Steven Erato, owner of the motorcycle shop, pieced together this account:
Erato was at the shop working on motorcycle Saturday morning when he heard a commotion and saw an intruder firing shots.
