- A Milwaukee police officer is hurt and three people are in custody following a shooting on the city’s south side.
While the officer is expected to be okay, concerns over what happened continue to loom over the tight-knit community.
“We try to make people aware and encourage them to speak up if they see something strange. Call the police, keep calling, no matter what,” said Alejandro Rivera, Owner, Rivera’s Western Wear.
Alejandro Rivera owns Rivera’s Western Wear, a clothing business on Cesar Chavez for more than 25 years.
During that time, he says he has seen the area change significantly, especially in the last five years.
“Some community members will rev their engines, burning their tires and young people will start drinking in the street. That, in turn, encourages other groups of people to come into the neighborhood,” said Rivera.
Rivera says the shooting on Sunday night is not a reflection of the people who live here, but rather people who come into the neighborhood to cause trouble.

I rember 35 years ago when i was a beer rep and this area was great to do business in and culturally fun..
No the neighborhood is not safe, but neither is anywhere in Milwaukee on account of the thugs.
Typical gang land then gang violence is expected
You mean violence from the cops
And for the second year in a row, armed thugs of the state bothering us. 🙄
Do you know the area? I lived there for years. It has been getting increasingly worse over the last decade.
Hell, I used to sell drugs there, and associated with quite a few gangbangers. That was 5yrs ago.
🤔 Well then how about this , 😾 Don’t Celebrate the damm event !!!! 😾 And learn to speak English you’re in 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
That’s rude. There are plenty of good Mexican Americans in that community and the best tacos anywhere in town.
@@thetrainwreck1469 And this isn’t the first time this has happened with this event and I’m sick of it 😾🇺🇸
English isn’t an official language of the United States, cope and seethe with that racist.
@@Orang315yeah, because these armed pigs keep bothering us. 🙄
@@ComradeIceSpice 😺 Well thank you for at least telling me this in English and also thank you for not telling me this in ghetto English
