Milwaukee 4-Year-Old Fatally Shot, Two Adults Arrested

News summary

A tragic series of events has unfolded in Milwaukee, where a 4-year-old boy named Ralph Taylor III was shot and killed inside his home on the northwest side. Neighbors, who described the child as sweet and bubbly, rushed to provide CPR but were unable to save him after hearing a single gunshot. Police arrested a 34-year-old man, reportedly the boy's father, on tentative charges of first-degree intentional homicide and felon in possession of a firearm, and a 33-year-old woman, believed to be the mother, on suspicion of aiding and abetting a felon; prosecutors have yet to file formal charges. Witnesses recounted inconsistent stories from the parents regarding the circumstances of the shooting, but police records confirm the child died from a gunshot wound to the head. In a separate incident, Milwaukee authorities issued an Amber Alert for Jamal White, a boy abducted at gunpoint and placed into a white Jeep Renegade SUV. Police are asking the public for information about both cases as investigations continue.
