Milwaukee Police Department Community Briefing - August 26, 2021, Officer Involved Shooting

As a part of the Community Briefing Series, the Milwaukee Police Department is releasing relevant information regarding the fatal officer involved shooting that occurred on Thursday, August 26, 2021, on the 2800 block of North 41st Street. The Community Briefing video series was created by MPD to promote transparency and accountability with the public, and to provide relevant information about officer-involved shootings. MPD’s goal is to continue to release relevant video regarding critical incidents within a reasonable amount of time after the incident unless releasing such video would jeopardize the integrity of the investigation. Pursuant to the Milwaukee Police Department’s Standard Operating Procedure, a critical incident that involves the death or great bodily harm of a person while in police custody will be investigated by an outside and independent law enforcement agency. This incident is being investigated by the Milwaukee Area Investigative Team and the Waukesha Police Department is the lead agency. Viewer discretion is advised.
