Milwaukee, Wisconsin - On Thursday, Allen Addison, 37, the half-brother of Milwaukee Acting Mayor Cavalier Johnson was taken into custody and booked at the Milwaukee County Sheriff's jail for one felony count of 1st-degree reckless endangering safety and use of a dangerous weapon and one felony count for possession of a firearm by a felon. If convicted, Addison is facing up to 25 years in prison and up to $100,000 in fines on the first felony count and up to 10 years in prison and up to $25,000 in fines for the second felony count with an additional 5 years in prison for use of a dangerous weapon. A cash bail of $25,000 was set for Addison on Friday.
According to the criminal complaint filed in January 2022, Milwaukee police responded to shots fired at the 3500 block of N. 11th Street on January 4, 2022 at around 3:01p.m. When police arrived at the scene, they found a 52-year-old male victim shot multiple times in a parked truck. The victim was transported to a local hospital for treatment of his injuries and survived. The victim suffered gunshot wounds to his leg, neck, arm and in the back of his head.
Police during the investigation learned that Addison and the 52-year-old male victim had gotten into a confrontation when the victim stopped an altercation between Addison and his girlfriend Ashley and Addison threaten to get back at him.
The 52-year-old male victim told police that a Dodge Ram truck with tinted windows and to suspects inside parked beside him and one of the suspects pulled out a handgun and fired multiple times at the victim.
The Dodge Ram truck was later connected to Addison who drives the same type of truck. When the truck was located, police found multiple spent casings inside.
Addison had been on the run since, January 2022 until Thursday when police took him into custody on an active warrant.
Addison is the half-brother of Milwaukee Acting Mayor Cavalier Johnson who is a current candidate for Mayor. To clarify, Johnson is not connected in anyway to this case other than he is related to the suspect.
The other mayoral candidate, former Alderman Robert "Bob" Donovan was video recorded live on Facebook this month by an elderly male victim (Ken Kraucunas) of an alleged criminal physical assault by Donovan at Zebb's Restaurant at S. 27 Street and W. Morgan Ave. in the Southside of Milwaukee. Check out video of mayoral candidate Donovan allegedly assaulting Kraucunas at following link: https://youtu.be/2j83jEyYv0U
