Jordan was one of four men accused in the shooting near 7th and Keefe, which happened the morning of Nov. 1, 2022. Police used surveillance to identify all four men.

According to a criminal complaint, a witness told police he was with the 17-year-old boy who was killed in the shooting, and words were exchanged between them and some guys at the gas station. He said as they got back into his car, the group of men from the gas station immediately started to shoot at them – striking the 17-year-old.

Surveillance showed a red Kia arrived at the gas station and the witness went inside and got into an argument with five men who were already inside. When all the men left the gas station, the complaint states the witness said he got into his Kia and began to drive away. At that time, the complaint said Dayquan Jenkins handed a firearm to Bruce Davis, who started shooting as the Kia pulled away.

'This is my pub': Packers Fans fill Moran’s in South Milwaukee for Thanksgiving watch party


SOUTH MILWAUKEE — It was all about the Packers Thursday night at Moran’s Pub on Thanksgiving. Dozens of fans spent the end of the holiday cheering on Green Bay as they took on the Miami Dolphins.

Moran’s invited TMJ4 to check out their special watch party and soak in the atmosphere.

Deanna Olson, a devoted fan, referred to the pub as her home. “This is my pub,” she said. “This is my hometown, South Milwaukee, born and raised. I live here, I love it, and I always cheer on my Packers. I’ve got to bring Grandpa’s flag, and here we are.”

That flag has become a lucky fashion statement of sorts for Olson.

“We went ahead and put this on as an ascot, and then we beat the Bears, so the ascot has to come back,” she said.

Olson wasn’t the only fan relying on a good luck charm Thursday night.

“I always have my Packer purse. Always during Packer season, I’ve got to make sure that I carry this,” said Katie “Grammy” Hilpert.

“Oh, they’re my boys. I’m very thankful because they have had a little better of a season, but we’ll take what we can get,” said Hilpert.

During the game, fans had the chance to play games and participate in raffles.

Both Hilpert’s and Olson’s lucky charms paid off as the Packers secured the win.

While Hilpert was grateful to cheer on her beloved Packers this holiday, simply coming together at the pub was already a guaranteed victory.

“What are you thankful for?” asked TMJ4’s Mike Beiermeister.

“Grandchildren, children. Life in general is really good, really good right now,” Hilpert replied, embodying the spirit of gratitude on this Thanksgiving Day.
