Here's your local news at a glance for Sunday, the 6th of July.
Good morning, Waukesha.
🚨 Crime
A Shorewood woman, 34-year-old Victoria Truss, was fatally shot just before 3 a.m. on July 3 in a domestic violence incident that led to a police chase ending in Milwaukee—police said the suspect shot a responding officer and was killed when he did not surrender.
A Waukesha County judge on Thursday denied a defense motion to suppress evidence tied to the murder of Carlos Maldonado after police found items in Kevin Lychwick’s car that support charges of first-degree homicide and hiding a corpse (he is 63 and held on $5 million bail) and set a status hearing for August 29 ahead of a trial scheduled for September 8-12.
🏈 Sports
On Friday night, Christian Yelich scored the go-ahead run on Jackson Chourio’s double in the eighth inning and the Brewers beat the Miami Marlins 6—5.
Aaron Ashby retired all seven batters he faced and his effort helped the Brewers secure their tenth win in 14 games.
