Madison Shooting Sparks Protests | Raleigh News

A man in his 30s died in a violent confrontation with Madison police on a busy street, after allegedly pulling out a knife and stabbing an officer during a struggle that began with a reported car break-in. Cellphone footage shows part of the incident, but police say it’s just one angle — the Wisconsin Department of Criminal Investigation is leading the official review. The officer injured was treated, and another officer was also hurt, though details remain unclear. The victim’s name and race have not been released, though community advocates say he was Black — reigniting painful memories of Tony Robinson’s 2015 killing by a white officer on the same street, which sparked major protests and led to no charges. Community members gathered at the scene demanding accountability, as tensions rise over police use of force and transparency.
