An Eau Claire man who recently pleaded guilty to charges in a car theft case is now facing new charges.
Ethan Beebe was one of four people charged in 2024 in connection with a series of car thefts.
He pleaded guilty to charges earlier this month and is now free on bond while awaiting sentencing.
Since entering that guilty plea, Beebe has been charged in an incident in which he is accused of punching a child on Valentine’s Day.
A child told police Beebe was hitting the child’s father, and when he tried to get him to stop, Beebe punched him.
