On May 18, 2014, Wilbert Lewis, a 31-year-old African-American man, was killed in a midday shooting outside a liquor store at 11th Street and Atkinson Avenue in Milwaukee. The attack occurred about 1:40 p.m. on a Sunday that had been designated the city’s Ceasefire Sabbath. Lewis was pronounced dead at the scene.

The shooting was a triple incident. Another victim, 49-year-old Marvin Smith, was mortally wounded and died after being taken to a hospital. A 48-year-old man was also shot and survived in stable condition. Police launched an investigation, canvassed the area, and sought witnesses, but initial reports gave no motive and no suspects were publicly identified.

No subsequent news reports have indicated arrests in the case. Does anyone have information about that afternoon at 11th and Atkinson or knew Wilbert Lewis and can help fill in what happened?
