The deputy was working security at the mall Thursday when Dornbrook came in. The store manager warned the officer to watch him because Dornbrook was suspected in past thefts at the store. The deputy saw Dornbrook try to leave with a package but stopped him at the door.

The deputy said he wanted to find out if the package was the suspect’s but Dornbrook replied “(expletive) this” this and tried to walk out of the store. The deputy then tried to stop him, which led to a physical altercation between the two, ending when a Glendale police officer arrived and handcuffed Dornbrook.

The officer found a loaded .40-cal. Glock semiautomatic pistol inside Dornbrook’s pants. Dornbrook told the officer he tried to leave because he was being profiled while trying to shop.

Dornbrook pleaded guilt to felony narcotics charges in 2005 in Dane County, again to the same charge in 2007 in Milwaukee County, and to Class A misdemeanor charges of theft (less than $2,500) in 2009 in Milwaukee County, according to Wisconsin court records.
