Around 10:30 p.m. that night, the victim said she heard a “loud boom” and felt a pain in her leg – noting a welt, a bullet hole in her bathtub and a bullet on the floor. 

A criminal complaint states police also found four bullet strikes to the back of the home, one of which would’ve gone into the bathroom – where it went through the bathtub and hit the victim in the leg.

At the scene, the complaint states officers found eight spent bullet casings – all of which were fired from the same gun. 

Surveillance video showed a silver Honda pull up just before 10:30 p.m. and the driver’s door opened. The camera feed cut out just after that point, but the complaint states it took another clip shortly after that showed the Honda drive away.

Per the complaint, police were already monitoring Jenkins’ social media because he was wanted for a “probation/parole violation.” On Dec. 3, he posted a video that showed him inside a similar vehicle near 6th and Canal. Pole cameras from that area at that time showed a Honda driving that “appears to be the same” as the one seen near 111th and Daphne. Additional surveillance taken minutes later showed the Honda pull up at a downtown hotel and the driver – Jenkins – get out. 

Jenkins was arrested as part of the U.S. Marshals Service “Operation North Star II.”

  • The Milwaukee Wave will face the San Diego Sockers in the Major Arena Soccer League championship series.
  • The Wave will host Game 1 on Wednesday, April 22, with the series then moving to California.
  • Milwaukee advanced to the finals after eliminating the Baltimore Blast.

The Milwaukee Wave had been in the awkward position of trying to sell tickets to the MASL championship series without knowing when it would actually host a game.

The questions were answered late April 19, when the San Diego Sockers beat the St. Louis Ambush in the other semifinal in overtime. Their series didn’t even start until four days after the Wave eliminated the Baltimore Blast with victories in a regulation Game 2 and knockout Game 3 at the UWM Panther Arena.

Now the finals are set for two of the most decorated teams in arena soccer.

The Wave will host Game 1 at 6:35 p.m. Wednesday, April 22 and then the series will finish at the Frontwave Arena in Oceanside, California, with Game 2 at 9:30 p.m. April 24 and a potential Game 3 at 9 p.m. April 27.

Three versions of the Sockers have totaled 16 championships in various indoor league with the latest iteration founded in 2009 owning six of those. The Wave has seven.

First-year Wave head coach Marcio Leite has won titles with both franchises.
