On Monday, MPD spokesperson Stephanie Fryer said police are actively investigating the incident, but that releasing specific details about the case, such as the suspect’s name or description, could put the investigation at risk.

“We understand this shooting has many in that neighborhood, and our entire city, feeling uneasy,” Fryer said. “As of today, multiple resources remain assigned to this case. We had a detective work through the holiday weekend reviewing evidence and statements collected at the scene. Detectives and leadership within our Violent Crime Unit met this morning to discuss the investigation. At this time, releasing specific details could jeopardize their work and this case.”

Police asked anyone with information regarding the shooting to contact Madison Area Crime Stoppers at 608-266-6014 or submit an anonymous tip online at p3tips.com.
