MILWAUKEE — Newly released video captures a shootout between Milwaukee police and a suspect inside a convenience store last month.

Video shows the suspect, 22-year-old Jayuntae Gregory, shooting at police with an assault rifle back on July 17 at the Citgo near Sherman and Capitol. Police returned fire.

In a press conference last month, Police Chief Jeffrey Norman said the situation continued to escalate from there.

"The suspect ran out of the store and fired numerous shots at officers, at which time several officers returned fire, subsequently striking the suspect," Norman said.
