Bodycam footage shows a Milwaukee police shootout with a man who fled from officers
Bodycam video of shootout between Marquis Little and Milwaukee Police
Body camera video captures the foot chase and shootout between Marquis Little, 20, and a pursuing Milwaukee Police officer on Sunday, March 24, 2024.
Provided by Milwaukee Police Department
A man who Milwaukee police shot after a short foot chase on the city’s north side pleaded not guilty to attempted homicide charges.
Marquis Little was arraigned in Milwaukee County Circuit Court on Wednesday, roughly three months after he was shot by officers who were responding to a shots-fired call. Police released bodycam video of the incident on May 9.
Little, 20, of Milwaukee, appeared in court with his attorney Andrew Sargent to enter his plea, but he already may be positioning himself to change his mind. A plea hearing in the case has been scheduled in six weeks, online court records show.

Three officers have been placed on administrative duty as the Wauwatosa Police Department leads an investigation into the shooting. Police recovered a gun at the scene.
Here’s what happened:
In a criminal complaint, police say they got several calls about shots fired on March 24 around 11:15 p.m. The shots appeared to have been fired near North 64th Street and Sheridan Avenue.
Officers arrived and found a man armed with a handgun, who they say ran and ignored their commands for him to stop.
The body camera footage of the pursuit opens with images from inside an apartment building of a man running down a set of stairs, trying to get away from police. It then switches to a scene outside. Officers are heard giving out a description of the suspect over the radio — that of a male wearing an orange hoodie and a black backpack.
Police chased the man for about two blocks.
The footage appears to show the man failing to comply with repeated orders to stop. At times, one officer could be heard warning the man he would be tased or shot if he didn’t stop.
“Stop! Stop! … You’re gonna get shot,” an officer yells out. But the suspect continues to run.

The video shows the man stop in a clearing next to a building, at which time, the buzz of a taser is heard. The officer, with his handgun drawn, orders the man to drop his weapon.
Police said the man fired two shots at the officers, who returned fire, hitting him. About a dozen shots are heard in the video, though it was not immediately clear how many shots each officer fired.
The man is seen running again, but he collapses a few yards away.
Officers can be seen on the recording giving the man medical attention until emergency medical technicians arrived.
What are the charges?
Little faces a charge of attempted first-degree intentional homicide and two counts of first-degree recklessly endangering safety.
What is next for Marquis Little?
His next court appearance will be the plea hearing, which is scheduled for July 2.
Circuit Court Judge Laura Crivello set Little’s bond in April at $150,000. He remained in the Milwaukee County Jail on Wednesday, online court records show.

Palermo's Pizza celebrating 60 years in operation
MILWAUKEE — Milwaukee’s own Palermo’s Pizza is expanding. The company will start building a new 200,000 square-foot facility this summer in West Milwaukee.
It will allow Palermo’s to grow its production capacity and add 50 new jobs. This comes as the family-owned business is celebrating 60 years in operation.
Founded by Italian immigrants in the 1950s, Palermo’s Pizza has deep roots in Milwaukee, family and tradition.
“My grandparents came over from Italy with nothing in their pocket,” said Nick Falluca, chief product and innovation officer at Palermo’s.
He said they worked hard and eventually turned some of their favorite Italian recipes into a business.
In 1964, the Falluca family opened a bakery out of a house on Milwaukee’s East Side. Four years later, they transitioned that bakery into an Italian restaurant. That’s where the family began offering their signature frozen pizzas for customers to buy and make at home. From there, they started selling those frozen pizzas at local grocery stores and bars.
Decades later, Palermo’s Pizza has grown into a national and international brand, selling millions of pizzas each year at major retailers, like Costco. Despite its growth, Palermo’s remains committed to its roots and values.
Still, every one of its frozen pizzas ties back to grandma and grandpa.
“We’d be at the dinner table, and everybody would be like, ‘Why is he screaming?’ And we would be like, ‘No, that’s just how grandpa talks,’” Falluca said. “He was loud and vibrant. That’s how the name ‘Screaming Sicilian’ came about.”
Dax Schaefer is the corporate chef for Palermo’s, and Brianna Fyock is a manager and senior food scientist for the company. They both said while they are not related to the Falluca family by blood, anyone who works for Palermo’s is treated like family.
“The Falluca family has been nothing but generous to their employees,” Schaefer said.
“It really does feel like family here,” Fyock added. “To actually see the start to finish, from the idea of a pizza to creation, and then be able to buy it for your family in a grocery store, is such a great experience.”
Falluca said prioritizing the customer, employees and a quality product also comes from grandpa.
“That’s how he ran the restaurant, putting the customer first, really great food, and focusing on your employees,” Falluca said. “That’s how to create a great business, product and customer service.”
