On the night of May 18, 2024, two 15-year-old boys were shot near South 14th Street and West Halsey Avenue in Milwaukee. Monroe Weso, a Native American student at West Allis Central High School, and his friend Alejandro Sanchez were both struck around 10:30 p.m.; one was pronounced dead at the scene and the other died at a hospital early the next morning. Monroe’s family planned to bury him on the Menominee Reservation.

Milwaukee police say the shooting followed an arranged meeting that was presented as a marijuana transaction but allegedly was a planned robbery. A 13-year-old later confessed and has been charged with two counts of felony murder. Authorities identified 15-year-old Christopher Scott in surveillance video; Scott is charged with two counts of first-degree intentional homicide and armed robbery and an arrest warrant was active as of late May 2024. A 16-year-old was also arrested and police were searching for an additional suspect. Surveillance footage and the suspects’ statements are central to the case.

Does anyone have information about Monroe, Alejandro, or the events that night that could help investigators?
