Chippewa County fugitive arrested

SAULT STE. MARIE, MI--   A Brimley woman wanted for cutting off her tether while out on bond has been found.

The Chippewa County Sheriff’s Office received information that Fawn Teeple, 39, was attempting to leave the Upper Peninsula. She was arrested Wednesday afternoon after deputies discovered her in a vehicle that was leaving a Sault Sainte Marie residence.

A second person, also in the vehicle, was arrested for ‘harboring a fugitive.’ The subject had been interviewed by the Sheriff’s Office shortly after Teeple first cut her tether.

Nicole was born near Detroit but has lived in the U.P. most of her life. She graduated from Marquette Senior High School and attended Michigan State and Northern Michigan Universities, graduating from NMU in 1993 with a degree in English.
