The Milwaukee Police Department has taken action against four individuals in connection with the death of D’Vontaye Mitchell, who passed away after an incident involving security guards at a Milwaukee hotel last month. The police have referred felony murder charges, as well as an underlying charge of battery, to prosecutors for review.
The names of the four individuals involved have not been disclosed by the police. The charges were officially referred to the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office on July 5. The district attorney’s office is currently assessing the situation and will make a decision on whether to press charges after reviewing the evidence.
The death of Mr. Mitchell is being treated as a homicide, with the district attorney’s office awaiting the results of his autopsy to determine any potential criminal liability. The incident has sparked outrage, leading to the termination of several hotel workers at the Hyatt Regency Milwaukee by Aimbridge Hospitality, the hotel’s operating company.
The community has been vocal in calling for accountability and justice for Mr. Mitchell’s death. The situation is still developing, and further updates are expected as the investigation progresses.
It is crucial to ensure that all parties involved in this tragic event are held accountable for their actions. The legal process will play a significant role in determining the outcome of this case, and the community will be watching closely to see that justice is served.
