Workers Say Men Videotaped Transmission Co. Headquarters
FBI, Oak Creek Police Continue To Investigate Collapsed Towers

POSTED: 5:18 pm CDT October 14, 2004

Police in Pewaukee are searching for answers about four men reportedly seen videotaping the headquarters of the American Transmission Co.

As WISN 12 News exclusively reported Wednesday night, workers said they spotted the men shortly after two transmission towers collapsed in Oak Creek Saturday.

That sighting led to near panic inside a nearby We Energies call center in the city of Pewaukee, which was on lockdown because of the tower collapse.

"We all stayed and stood our ground. And, ah, we thought we were, we may not make it out of there alive," the worker said.

The witnesses said they saw three or four men they described as Middle Eastern looking videotaping the building and the surrounding area.

"One would hope that if these people were out there for something legitimate, that they come forward and help put this to rest. But I don't know if it's correlated to what occurred in Oak Creek," City of Pewaukee Police Department Chief Gary Bach said.

Police sent several officers and a canine unit to the area where the men were last seen, but found nothing.

The police reports were forwarded to the FBI, Oak Creek police and the Department of Homeland Security.

Meanwhile, the on-site investigation in Oak Creek has wrapped up.

Oak Creek Police Chief Tom Bauer said they and the FBI collected 250 pieces of potential evidence, and they've received many tips from the public, which are being investigated.

Both Bauer and the FBI said thus far, they're not aware of any connection between the tower collapse and the suspicious men in the city of Pewaukee.

Anyone with information about either incident is asked to call the FBI at (414) 291-4322.
