A six-year-old boy becomes the 13th child injured in a Milwaukee shooting this year. The boy’s mother took him to a hospital where he is reported to be in critical, but stable, condition. She tells police the boy was sitting in a parked car Thursday night when somebody opened fire. Just one month ago 11-year-old Shamariona McCloud was wounded when a bullet came through the wall of her grandmother’s home.
Milwaukee police are also investigating two other shootings which happened in the early morning hours Sunday. Officers say they arrived at one location at about 12:40 A-M to find a 23-year-old man suffering a gunshot wound. He died at a local hospital. Just 20 minutes later, another man was shot at the same place. That 20-year-old victim is expected to survive. No names have been released and no arrests have been announced.
