A 31-year-old Milwaukee man is dead following an officer-involved shooting that happened Tuesday, Feb. 21.

According to police, around 1:40 p.m., a Milwaukee police officer observed a driver in a vehicle without any plates near 70th and Thurston. A traffic stop was initiated but the driver fled as officers approached.

A pursuit was initiated. Police say the fleeing driver disregarded a red light near 91st and Silver Spring and collided with another vehicle. The suspect then fled on foot.

According to police, during the foot pursuit, the suspect displayed a handgun and continued to run.

Police say the officer gave several commands for the suspect to drop the weapon. The officer discharged his firearm, fatally striking the suspect.

The officer, a 43-year-old man with over five years of service with MPD, was placed on administrative duty.

The Waukesha Police Department is the lead agency on the incident.

Prosecutors said Darreon Parker-Bell asked about his friend Keishon Thomas who died in police custody earlier that week.

"He said, 'What happened to my brother?' He goes, 'He died here the other day.' I said, 'Sir, I can't talk to you about that.' That was our conversation beginning to end, and that's when he pulled the gun out and started shooting," Holmblad said.

During his 21 years on the job, Holmblad said he never fired his gun at someone or had been shot at.

That day, he said he was almost killed.

The report was released by the Environmental Integrity Project, a nonprofit organization focused on environmental law enforcement, which revealed that the US is still a long way from achieving this goal.
