MILWAUKEE, WI – On Tuesday, July 16th, a man was fatally shot by police near 14th and Vliet Streets, which is roughly one mile from Fiserv Forum, the main venue for the Republican National Convention (RNC). 

With security measures tightened after the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump just one day before the RNC began, the Columbus Division of Police confirmed that the officer-involved shooting happened in the “outer perimeter of the RNC” and that it does not appear to be related to the convention.
