I just got this email update from the South Milwaukee Police Department …
On Tuesday 06/21/11 at about 5:56p.m. South Milwaukee Police Department Officers were dispatched to the 1800 block of 17th Ave. for a reported domestic violence incident. The victim, a 60 year old female, reported her husband had choked her, hit her, threatened her with a kitchen knife, and sprayed her with butane fuel. The victim further stated her husband threatened to kill her and himself. After a short standoff, the suspect, a 54 year old male, came out of the house and was taken into custody without further incident. The South Milwaukee Police Department will be seeking charges of Recklessly Endangering Safety while Armed, Battery-Domestic Violence related, and Bail jumping.
I’ll keep you posted if I hear more about this.

Wow! I hope the lady is alright!!
(On a related note, I wonder if our illustrious “NOW” section of the paper will report THIS incident or just do their usual “police responded to 3 domestic calls this week”.)
