Hector Acevedo was 25 and a Milwaukee resident when he was shot during a July 4, 2019 shootout near 84th and Mill. He was in a car that was sprayed with bullets just after 6 p.m.; struck in the back of the head, he was rushed to hospital, declared brain dead shortly after, and died on July 6, 2019.

Milwaukee Police canvassed the area and requested nearby surveillance footage but did not make any immediate arrests. Family members, including his father Rafael Acevedo, publicly appealed for information and criticized delays in medical assistance and transport. The family has offered a reward and urged anyone with information to come forward.

Can anyone with knowledge of the incident or who was near 84th and Mill that evening share what they saw?
