Milwaukee street takeovers; support for new ordinance, $500 fine
The Brief Milwaukee police say they broke up a street takeover on the city's south side on Sunday evening, June 8. There's support for an ordinance that would fine anyone involved in a street takeover $500. Additionally, the Puerto Rican Festival Parade President said that the parade had nothing to do with the takeover. MILWAUKEE - Milwaukee police responded to another street takeover, this one on Sunday night, June 8, 2025. Police were called to the city's south side around 4 p.m. There are tire marks all over this intersection at 14th and Burnham. SIGN UP TODAY: Get daily headlines, breaking news emails from FOX6 News The area was shut down after police were called to a street takeover. FOX6 spoke with people who say the same takeover happens every year. They're calling on the city to be better prepared. What they're saying People hanging out of cars, burning tires, and a large police response. That was what the area of 14th and Burnham looked like during Sunday night's street takeover. "It's not fair for people who have to get up and go to work in the morning, or take their kids to school to be woken up at three in the morning, because some people decide to do donuts and set off firecrackers and shoot in the air," said Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson. "They are dangerous. I witnessed a vehicle doing a donut in this intersection. People just feet away. He would have lost control of the car, someone else was burning out, they could have lost control of the car -- anyone could have gotten hurt," said Milwaukee Common Council President Jose Perez. The police gave out four citations. The week before, Mayor Cavalier Johnson announced his support for an ordinance circulating common council. It would fine anyone involved in a street takeover $500. MPD also assigned five "patrol missions" to the north side and five to the south side, along with two tow trucks to crack down on the takeovers and those involved. FOX6 asked police if those missions responded Sunday. MPD wouldn't say. What they're saying "Every year, it happens," said Walter Garron, Puerto Rican Festival Parade President. More than two miles away, Garron led the Puerto Rican Parade. "Puerto Ricans feel proud, and they want to get their flags and sometimes people get carried away," said Garron. Garron says the parade had nothing to do with the takeover. The festivities were over by 7 p.m. He says he's frustrated because, every national Puerto Rican day parade, this happens. "If people already know that this happens every year, why don't they prepare? Make the correct measurements for the closures on the street," added Garron. FREE DOWNLOAD: Get breaking news alerts in the FOX LOCAL Mobile app for iOS or Android Garron says when planning the parade, they don't serve alcohol to keep the event family-friendly. He says the takeovers are frustrating on a day the community is supposed to celebrate. "For us to be reflected that way, that's not us, and it's a little disappointing," said Garron. Milwaukee police told FOX6 that they have not had issues on past National Puerto Rican Parade days. FOX6 will keep you posted as the common council debates the street takeover ordinance. Perez says the council will discuss the street takeovers. The Source FOX6 has previously reported on the street takeover with information from the Milwaukee Police Department. FOX6 also interviewed Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson and Puerto Rican Festival Parade President Walter Garron to produce this story.

He's angry about everything….I just thought he was this unlikely character and I just really connected with the idea,' he continued in the almost effortless US accent. @garron_music ♬ original sound – Garron Noone While Garron was unable to keep a straight face in the video, many still took to the comments, confused by his claims. 'Right.. now my brain hurts because I don't know if your American or Irish,' one user wrote. 'I low-key can't even tell if this is real or not like are you Irish or are you American? Which one are you?,' another penned. The Irish TikToker recently made a video impersonating an American father disciplining his son, with many perplexed by how convincing his accent was.
