Jermaine L. Wright, a 32-year-old African-American man, was fatally shot the night of July 17, 2012, in Milwaukee’s 1700 block of West Atkinson Avenue after an argument that began outside a tavern escalated into deadly violence. Wright sustained gunshot wounds during the quarrel and later died of his injuries.

In the immediate aftermath police identified Wright as the victim but had not taken anyone into custody. By late July 2012 authorities had not publicly identified suspects or announced arrests; subsequent long-term developments are not available and the case appears unresolved.

If anyone was in the area that night or has information about the argument outside the tavern or who might have been involved, please come forward with what you know.
