Final investigative report filed in Jay Anderson case; D.A. now reviewing case

MILWAUKEE -- The Milwaukee County District Attorney's Office received the final investigative report from the Milwaukee Department regarding the death of Jay Anderson, Jr.

Anderson died after an officer-involved shooting in Wauwatosa early on Thursday, June 23rd. Wauwatosa police say an officer saw a suspicious vehicle in Madison Park early that morning -- Anderson was alone inside the car. Police say the officer spotted a gun in Anderson's possession and feared for his safety, firing his own weapon and hitting Anderson -- who later died from his injuries.

On Thursday, July 21st, Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm and Chief Deputy District Attorney Kent Lovern met with members of the family of Anderson. They shared with the family all the evidence collected by the Milwaukee Police Department, including recordings of officer dispatches before and after the critical incident, video of the incident itself, and reports by the Milwaukee County Medical Examiner and the Wisconsin State Crime Laboratory.

The District Attorney’s Office has determined that the release of any audio and video recording related to this incident would not hamper its continued review of this incident. Therefore, the City of Wauwatosa has the authority to consider the release of this evidence to the public.

The D.A.'s office is continuing to review this case. It plans to consult with the Anderson family before announcing any decisions on this matter.
