Madison police say a Wednesday night gun scare near the University of Wisconsin campus was apparently based on an inaccurate report. Police were told a man with a gun was chasing another man toward the Memorial Union after a fight. When officers checked it out, they determined the two men hadn’t been fighting and there was no gun. The alert sent to the campus community was cleared quickly, no injuries were reported and no arrests were made.
