The 41-year-old man was brought to an area hospital to be evaluated for a gunshot wound, which he is expected to survive without major complications. However, the man was still arrested by Milwaukee police officers, along with a 36-year-old woman.
Officers have not revealed any key details from their investigation, so it remains unclear what led to the shooting. However, the case is pending and has been submitted to the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office for further review.
