Timothy John Robinson-Webb was 22 when he was killed in a volley of gunfire during the early morning hours of August 20, 2017, on Milwaukee’s south side. The violence erupted after an argument inside QuisQuella Bar at 2078 South 8th Street; security pushed people outside and the dispute continued in the street near Park Place Sports Bar at 2079 South 8th Street. At least six different firearms were discharged and investigators recovered 83 spent cartridge casings. Bullets struck the bar, a nearby home, and multiple vehicles.

Family members later identified Robinson-Webb as the person who died; a 21-year-old woman was also reported to have been seriously wounded and taken to hospital. Detectives said the number of shooters and lack of useful surveillance footage from Park Place complicated efforts to determine who fired the fatal shot. The person believed to have been involved in the killing fled and no suspect was publicly named; the records do not document an arrest, charge, trial, or conviction for Robinson-Webb’s death. Park Place’s licenses were not renewed in February 2018 after city meetings about preventing further confrontations.

If anyone saw the confrontation on South 8th Street and West Becher Street that night or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
