MILWAUKEE -- Police identified the young man in his late teens or early 20s who died as six more were injured late Sunday after the female driver of a vehicle attempted to flee Milwaukee police during an attempted traffic stop.

The Incident

According to a report from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the driver of an old Chevrolet fled Milwaukee police during an attempted traffic stop on N. 27th St. for an apparent traffic violation at approximately 9:45 p.m. Sunday.

Milwaukee police did not pursue the fleeing vehicle as a matter of department policy, and the fleeing vehicle reportedly struck a concrete light pole and a 2015 Nissan Altima.
