Upon arrival, Sheriff’s deputies and other first responders found a 16-year-old boy at the park with fatal gunshot wounds. He died at the scene, according to MCSO.

Shortly after, the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office said a different 19-year-old man, believed to be injured in the same incident, walked into a local hospital seeking treatment for a non-life-threatening injury.

A third victim, a 27-year-old man, also believed to be injured at Dineen Park, was found dead in a vehicle in another location.

On Monday, the Milwaukee County Medical Examiner's Office identified the two killed as Jayden Greer, 16, and Daequan Stevens, 27.

"I don’t know much about what happened but I heard a lot of gunshots," Deaudray McKinney, a neighbor, said.

"I peaked out to see what was going on, heard an older guy say 'Call police there’s a man down', and I saw the body laying over there."

McKinney called 911 but said it was too late.

"Seeing a young man trying to hold onto his life until he doesn’t have it anymore... I think about my kids," McKinney recalled.

"When will it cease? When? I don’t want to be that parent crying over my child because he lost his life."

This is an ongoing investigation. MCSO did not say whether they have anyone in custody or if any arrests have been made.
