A 3-year-old boy was shot inside a Milwaukee apartment on Sunday evening at Bradley Townhouse Apartments. The incident occurred just before 6 p.m. near 64th Court and Bradley Road, according toWISN 12.
A child was taken to Children’s Hospital after an accidental shooting, with North Shore Fire and Rescue and the Milwaukee Fire Department responding. Authorities say the child is expected to survive. A 28-year-old has been arrested in connection with the incident, and charges are pending. Milwaukee police are urging gun owners to secure their firearms with locks or store them in a safe to prevent accidents like this one, as reported byWTMJ.
This incident recalls a similar tragedy at the same apartment complex in February, when 4-year-old Jamero Edwards was shot and later died. A neighbor described the situation as “Everything about it is horrible. It’s very disturbing. It’s like a PTSD kind of thing,” referring to the earlier shooting, where a 6-year-old found a gun in a purse and unintentionally discharged it, killing Edwards, as stated byWISN 12.
Details are still emerging about a shooting on the northwest side of Milwaukee, as mentioned byFOX6 News. The Milwaukee Police Department is investigating the incident. Police are also emphasizing the importance of gun safety in homes to prevent children from accessing firearms.
