Milwaukee Police say a 33-year-old man has a broken tooth and cuts all over his face after a group of teenagers pulled him from his car and beat him following Milwaukee's Juneteenth celebration.
It happened after the festival ended in the 3000 block of north 1st Street which is a short distance from the actual festival. Police say hundreds of teenagers started kicking the man's car. Today's TMJ 4 video from the scene shows the teenagers damaging at least several cars.
The man who was pulled from his car was treated and released from a local hospital.
Meanwhile, a few blocks away a group of girls started fighting. When police went to break up the fight near 1st and Auer, the department says a 17-year-old girl started punching and kicking a 15-year veteran officer.
She hit him in his face shield, which shattered into his face. He needed three stitches and has scratches on his neck. That 17-year-old was arrested and police are recommending charges for battery to a police officer.
Police say there was also a fight earlier in the day in the 3000 block of north 1st Street. In that case, three women were fighting. Police say a 15-year-old boy tried to break up the fight when an 18-year-old man got involved in it.
According to police, the 18-year-old got angry, walked away and told the boy he was coming back with a gun. The 18-year-old did in fact return with a gun and fired five shots into a crowd where the boy was standing. The 15-year-old's 39-year-old uncle was hit in the shoulder. He was treated and released from a local hospital.
Some people think the violence takes away from the real meaning of Juneteenth.
"I think it should be continued," said Earnestine Rogers. "It shouldn't be stopped because of some youngsters."
It's the second year in a row that violence has broken out at the celebration.
Some people think the violence takes away from the real meaning of Juneteenth.
Why yes, yes it does, but then perhaps these folks aren’t really respecting that meaning anyway.
Lets see how does that go now “ I was in fear for my life officer. Some of the rioters were making suspicious movements in the area of their waists. I have no more to say I want to talk to a lawyer.”
Feral.
Thank's Abe!
Why are the aholes even celebrating juneteenth? Is a black texas thing
well , it has gotten to the point where . . .
“Thug Culture” rules all public spaces ,...
if they’re there , they “own” it
Kids all over this country watch violent cartoons and play violent video games. Not all of them act out their violence. So there must be some other factor in play.
I wonder why Wisconsin celebrates Juneteenth? Juneteenth has nothing to do with Wisconsin. It’s a Texas thing.
You want racism? How about the subculture of some blacks who won’t assimilate into civilized society because they consider it being white?
Pretty much.
Any excuse to get out of work, play the victim, or create havoc.
They should have national wefare sponge day instead.
It's a black thing, you wouldn't understand.
One more reason its a good idea to keep a firearm in your car.
Thanks for that info. I just remember it as a child - no blacks (in TX) were expected to show up for work on that day. I had always considered in ‘TX only’.
And in this case... with an extra clip.

One shot, maybe two, and I suspect you drive away without further trouble...but you can’t argue against extra ammo in such situations.
To them it seems like a logical tactic.
Multiculturalism stinks.
Cultural Marxism ultimately leads to economic Marxism...
The same is true for sex perverts and drugs.
Some? Some?
Then again, these are the children of the "happy" second class citizens "who did the work whites wouldn't do" in the South forty years ago...
Chickens coming home to roost and all - wonder how the children of "guest workers" will treat us in 40 years?
