Investigators have called for public tips to identify a suspect in the unsolved Walker's Point shooting.
Overview
- A double shooting in Roosevelt Grove wounded a 25-year-old and a 37-year-old Saturday night, and police arrested a 36-year-old whose charges were referred to the Milwaukee County District Attorney.
- Hours later early Sunday, a separate double shooting in Walker's Point injured a 39-year-old and a 40-year-old and no suspect was in custody.
