MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- One man is dead after a shooting at MPS South Stadium on Saturday, Oct. 12.
According to Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS) an incident occurred during a youth flag football game at MPS South Stadium.
The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner's Office says the victim was shot and later died at the hospital.
CBS 58 spoke with a parent who said she was watching her daughter, who is in elementary school playing flag football, when she saw a fight break out and then heard gunshots.
She says it was heartbreaking to see the kids react and duck down.
The stadium was cleared. MPS says the district is working closely with MPD to investigate the situation.
All other games scheduled for the day at the South Stadium have been canceled.
CBS 58 has reached out to Milwaukee police and is waiting to hear back.
