MILWAUKEE — A GoFundMe page has been set up to help cover expenses for a Milwaukee Police officer who was injured in a hit-and-run last week.
Officer Alberto Figueroa, 26, has pulled over a vehicle for a traffic stop when two cars speeding down Capitol Drive near 24th Street crashed into a parked car that pinned Figueroa to the car he pulled over.
