Antoine's Assessments

For the past 3-to-4 days, there has been not just one, but two gangs lurking around hiding in the 91ST, 95TH, and 96TH Street Blocks of West Brown Deer Road. The two gangs are the Meadows Boys and the Burleigh Boys (also known as the Burleigh Zoo).

Two nights ago, my sister told my mom and my mom told me that there was a shooting in the back area where the basketball courts are at and Woodlands Security and the K-9 Unit were called to some drama that was taken place that started in the first parking lot of the Woodlands Condominiums on North 91ST Street which probably then was led to the basketball courts back area.

This same week, it was brought to my attention that any of the North Meadows apartments on the main street of Brown Deer Road next to the Kwik Pantry corner store, someone or some people of a gang had shotgun rifle and who knows what else is being held between these two gangs. It's not known whether if it's just gang related, drug and drug money related, or anything other suspicious criminal activity.

Just last night (on Wednesday) after 10:00PM as I was going home and getting dropped off, my mom came back home and she told me this morning as I am here telling you this now that there was so many unknown cars in the parking lot she lives in and it mostly all had to do with all the stuff that was going on. What makes matters worse is that the back alley way which is a shortcut to lead you to the main street of Brown Deer Road can't even be walked through to go to the corner store or the gas station or even get through to go to the bus stop safely without someone or some people in one of the two or both gangs hanging around in the Historic Granville Neighborhood between 91ST through 96TH Streets hearing from other people who live in the neighborhood saying that "Anyone who walks through the back alley way will be shot" and that even means little kids as well.

Neighborhood residents have had just about enough of all they can take with all this drug and gang business here in Milwaukee including those who've been living in Historic Granville Neighborhood for a long time. The Mayor, the Police Chief, the Police Captains and Officers MPD District 4 and District 5, MPD S.W.A.T., K-9 Units, U.S. Marshals, F.B.I., ATF, DEA, and all other law enforcements will have their hands full trying to take down two gangs in one or two different neighborhoods whether if it's the deep inner North Side of Burleigh Street or right in Historic Granville Neighborhood off of Brown Deer Road, it's about time for another neighborhood or neighborhoods to be taken by the residents and their police districts so that neighborhood residents can go back to living peaceful and quiet lives without gangs running around causing harm and danger to random people.
