Donald E. Thomas, 45, was shot and killed after a dispute that began inside Ed’s Lounge near 5th and Center in Milwaukee and continued outside on April 18, 2019. Surveillance video reportedly shows Thomas involved in a physical altercation inside the bar with staff and a woman, after which he was escorted out. That woman was the stepdaughter of 52-year-old Michael Allen Teague, who was at a nearby bar, Throttle Twisters.

Prosecutors say a witness to the bar fight told Teague, who then retrieved a gun from his truck and followed Thomas. Surveillance footage allegedly captures Teague returning to his truck and leaving the scene after gunshots were heard. Thomas died from a gunshot wound. Teague was identified as the primary suspect, arrested, and charged with first-degree reckless homicide and felony possession of a firearm, with bail set at $150,000. Thomas’s family described him as funny and good and called for an end to senseless gun violence.

If anyone saw or filmed the confrontation outside Ed’s Lounge on April 18, 2019, or has other information, please share what is known.
