MILWAUKEE, WI— On Wednesday, September 11th, 2024, at approximately 4:00 p.m.,on the 700 block of South 1st Street the Milwaukee Police Department (MPD) responded to an incident where three adults were physically attacked by a group of juveniles. A 63-year-old victim was transported to a local hospital for treatment of serious injuries. A 62-year old victim and the 53-year-old victim were medically treated at the scene.
At this time, two 14-year-old males and a 15-year-old male have been taken into custody and we are seeking additional suspects. The suspects involved are facing felony aggravated assault charges due to the egregiousness of this incident. This is an active investigation.
MPD is requesting assistance in identifying all the individuals, including witnesses, involved. Those that cause harm to others in our community shall be held accountable.
This behavior is not just unacceptable, it is inhumane. Violence is never appropriate conflict resolution.
Anyone with any information is asked to contact Milwaukee Police Department at (414) 935-7360 or to remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers at (414) 224-Tips or P3 Tips.
Professionalism
- posts/stories highlighting our training, members and staff.
