Big Top Chautauqua founder Warren Nelson arrested

By The Admiral Closed

Authorities say the founder and artistic director of the Lake Superior Big Top Chautauqua has been released from jail on a $5,000 signature bond after being arrested in a sexual assault and aggravated battery investigation.

Warren P. Nelson of Washburn is the star of Tent Show Radio, a nationwide weekly public radio program that hosts Big Top performances.

Bayfield District Attorney Craig Haukaas says the 61-year-old Nelson was arrested Friday and made a court appearance Monday for bail to be set. Haukaas says Nelson’s next court appearance is Feb. 24, and formal charges will be filed by then.
