Law enforcement officers with the Waupaca County Sheriff’s Department and the Wisconsin Department of Justice executed several search warrants at Kastle Kampground in the township of Dupont Saturday.
Authorities say the search warrants were the result of an ongoing investigation that was based on complaints from several victims of alleged sexual assault there.
A press release from the Waupaca County Sheriff’s Department says the victims were all males ranging in age from 10 to 21.
At this time, authorities believe there may also have been incidences that occurred in Dane County in the Madison area.
Authorities did arrest a suspect in the case Friday night. The man was taken into custody in Dane County and is currently in the Dane County Jail.
Law enforcement believes there may be more victims who have not come forward.
Authorities are asking anyone with information to call the Waupaca County Sheriff’s Department at (715) 258-4466, Waupaca County Crime Stoppes at (888) 258-995 or the Wisconsin Department of Justice Division of Criminal Investigation at (920) 832-2750.

We stayed at the campground twice and it was not a campground I decided I would bring my young children too. To many unsupervised children and young adults and underaged drinking. Seemed to be the theme of the campground and the campers (seasonal and weekenders) were aware of this. I agree if the owner is quilty, justice should be served, but the campers should be aware of their surroundings!!
the man in custody is the owner of kastle kampground these are dispicable acts and this man should rot in jail
