An 18-year-old student, Nakwon J. Genous, was killed in an early-morning shooting near North 41st Street and West Glendale Avenue in Milwaukee on May 31, 2025. Police were called at about 5:00 a.m.; Genous was found suffering from gunshot wounds and died at the scene. The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner later publicly identified him.

Neighbors described multiple shots that woke residents and a stray round that passed through a front door, leaving broken glass inside before stopping on a floor. Genous was in the 10th grade at Milwaukee Marshall High School, and his death was counted among several gun-related fatalities affecting Milwaukee Public Schools students during the 2024-2025 school year. The Milwaukee Board of School Directors observed a moment of silence for him on June 24, 2025.

Police initially said they were seeking unknown suspects and released no shooter description or immediate arrests. If anyone knew Nakwon, witnessed the shooting, or has information that could help investigators, please contact Milwaukee police or Crime Stoppers.
