FRANKLIN, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Officials are investigating an officer-involved shooting in Kewaunee County.
Kewaunee County Sheriff Matthew Joski says the shooting happened a little after 8 last night (MON) near a home on County Road AB in the town of Franklin.
Joski tells WLUK the male suspect is deceased and the officer is unharmed.
“I want to hesitate in providing any premature information that would undermine the investigation. We owe it to the victim, we owe it to the officers and we owe it to the community, so we have to be patient and we have to walk through this very slowly and methodically.”
The Division of Criminal Investigation is on scene.
Joski says the public is not in danger. More information is expected to be released today.
