One person died in a shooting near Milwaukee’s Deer District Feb. 28 outside a music venue that opened this weekend in the high-traffic downtown area.<\/p>\n

The shooting happened around 11:34 p.m. The 47-year-old victim, who has not yet been identified, sustained multiple gunshot injuries and died at the scene. The Milwaukee Police Department says it is working to investigate and identify a suspect.<\/p>\n

Anyone with any information is asked to contact Milwaukee Police at (414) 935-7360. To remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers at (414) 224-Tips or use the P3 Tips App.<\/p>\n

The shooting happened at the intersection of North Vel R. Phillips Avenue and West State Street, between the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Panther Arena and Landmark Credit Union Live<\/a>, a new venue that hosted its first touring act the night before the shooting.<\/p>\n

The venue hosted BossMan Dlow<\/a> Feb. 28. The Milwaukee Bucks did not play at Fiserv Forum the night of the shooting. It is unclear whether the victim and suspect were attending an event in the Deer District.<\/p>\n

The downtown area has seen shootings before, including a quadruple shooting in June 2025<\/a> that sent four young adults to the hospital. In 2022, three people were injured in a shooting<\/a> outside Fiserv Forum after a Bucks playoff game.<\/p>\n

Milwaukee has recorded 14 homicides so far this year and 47 non-fatal shootings, both down from this time last year and in 2024, according to MPD statistics<\/a>.<\/p>\n
