Milwaukee’s Mayor, Cavalier Johnson, has attributed the city’s recent surge in shootings to the easy access to firearms.
On Wednesday, a series of shootings resulted in 13 people being shot, one fatally.
Mayor Johnson called on state and federal governments to address the rising crime in Milwaukee.
The Milwaukee Police Department reported that over a 12-hour period, there were three double shootings and one incident where four people were wounded.
An arrest has been made in only one of the cases.
