10 People Shot in Milwaukee

Milwaukee.

One night.

Ten people shot.

TEN PEOPLE WERE SHOT IN MILWAUKEE ON ONE NIGHT.

From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:

Ten people were injured, two of them critically, in five separate shootings in Milwaukee overnight. Police said Sunday they are still investigating the incidents:

About 10:30 p.m. Saturday, a 20-year-old man was driven to a hospital in a private vehicle. He was injured at N. 27th St. and W. Burleigh St. and was treated for a gunshot wound. Police have a suspect in custody.

At 11:50 p.m. two people were shot in the 5700 block of N. 94th St. The victims, 23 and 25, suffered nonlife-threatening injuries. Police said they are familiar with the victims.

At 11:55 p.m., two women were shot at a bar in the 3700 block of W. National Ave. The victims, who are 49 and 35, are being treated for their injuries. The 49-year-old was listed in critical condition early Sunday. The 35-year-old suffered nonlife-threatening injuries. No one is in custody.

At 11:55 p.m., four people were shot in the 2400 block of W. Keefe Ave., leaving a 19-year-old woman in critical condition. Two men, ages 24 and 22, have nonlife-threatening injuries. An 18-year-old woman was treated and released.

At 3 a.m. Sunday, an 18-year-old man walked into a hospital after he said he was shot at Judy's Red Hots at 48th and Lisbon Ave. His injury is not life-threatening.

Not good.

Is Mayor Tom Barrett outraged over all this gun violence?

Is this the new normal for Milwaukee?
