A Marathon County judge has sentenced a former alternative high school student to two-and-a-half years in jail for bringing a loaded gun to school.  Nineteen-year-old Keanan Brown was found with a stolen gun in his jacket on the campus of North Central Technical College in February 2016.  Police arrested him after receiving an anonymous tip.  Brown was also involved in an armed robbery eight months after the incident at the school.  He was found guilty of four felony and two misdemeanor charges.  The judge ruled that he will get credit for the more than 400 days he has already spent behind bars while the charges were pending.
