3 people injured in 'weapons offense' on Milwaukee Street

MADISON (WKOW) -- Three people were injured after a weapons offense on the east side of Madison Saturday morning, according to the Madison Police Department.

MPD Sgt. Ronald Webster said the incident occurred around 3:30 a.m. in the 4600 block of Milwaukee Street.

Three people were treated at a local hospital for their injuries, and Webster said they are expected to survive. 

Webster said it "appears to be the result of a disturbance" which started at a gathering within a residence.

27 News was on scene there this morning after police tape and squad cars were seen around a house in the area. Reporters have tried to learn what type of weapon was used in the offense, but MPD has not provided any additional information at this time.

However, neighbors told 27 News that they heard gun shots at 3:26 a.m. 

Kyle Hynek has lived in the area for three years. He said the neighborhood is usually calm and quiet. 

"I was about to fall asleep. Then all of a sudden, was abruptly awoken at 3:26 a.m. based on what my video camera footage says. I looked out the window and I probably shouldn't have done that," Hynek said. 

Hynek's security camera caught the whole thing on video. He shared the video with 27 News. 

"I heard a bunch of gunshots. It was probably like 12 or 15 or so. And I saw some people yelling and running off on the sidewalk," he said. 

The Violent Crime Unit is currently investigating this incident.
