All lanes of traffic were diverted off the interstate at Hawley Road. I-94 East remained closed for roughly one hour.
WTMJ’s Gene Mueller was near the back-up on I-94. He said it looked like officers were searching for something.
“I did see four deputies walking in those eastbound lanes, heading to the west, shoulder to shoulder,” Mueller said.
“Almost as if they were looking for something on the ground.”
The Milwaukee County Sherriff’s Office has not released any further information about the suspect or victim.
