Witnesses report at least one gunman firing from a white car at another car. Officers have found a parked, and unoccupied dark colored sedan in the area with apparent bullet damage.
A witness said several teens had run from the sedan. It is not known if this was the car being targeted. Many officers and detectives are on the case with the MPD’s Violent Crime Unit taking the lead. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact Madison Area Crime Stoppers at (608) 266-6014.
