Overnight quadruple shooting in Milwaukee injures four near Fiserv Forum, Deer District

An overnight quadruple shooting in downtown Milwaukee sent four young adults to hospitals for injuries, according to the Milwaukee Police Department.

The shooting happened around 2:47 a.m. June 8 on the 300 block of West McKinley Avenue, one block northeast of the Deer District and Fiserv Forum.

Three 22-year-old victims were transported to local hospitals for injuries, though police did not specify if the injuries were gunshot wounds.

Another 21-year-old-victim sustained a non-fatal gunshot wound, police said, and was taken to a hospital. No one died in the shooting.

The investigation is ongoing, and police seek unknown suspects.

Anyone with information is asked to call Milwaukee police at (414) 935-7360. To remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers at (414) 224-Tips or P3 Tips.

The shooting comes two days after two shootings that happened minutes apart on West Hampton Avenue, killing two and injuring four.

Those shootings prompted Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson to issue a statement, asking the city’s residents to take “all possible steps” to reduce gun violence.

“To anyone inclined to shamelessly shoot at another human being, your actions will land you in prison,” Johnson said.

Gun violence has risen in recent weeks, with homicides in mid-May outpacing 2024 figures. The increase has prompted concern among violence prevention groups.
