MILWAUKEE — The TMJ4 I-Team received an audio copy of a 911 call made by a woman following the Molson Coors mass shooting through an open records request Friday.
The phone call lasted just over a minute. It was made by a woman who was worried about her husband and others on the brewery's campus.
The call happened during some of the aftermath of a shooting police say was executed by Anthony Ferrill, 51. Ferrill was a longtime electrician of the company who police say shot and killed five others before turning the gun on himself.
The victims, ranged in ages from 33 to 61, marking a dark day in Milwaukee's rich history.
We will always carry the memories of Gene, Jesus, Trevor, Dana and Dale in our hearts.

"It's in the air and it's not going away soon," said Alderman Russell Stamper II, alderman of Milwaukee's 15th District.
The shooting happened in Stamper's district. He said now is a time to grieve for six mourning families.
"I want everybody to be patient and respect the families wished to be private," Stamper said.
