OSHKOSH (WTAQ-WLUK) – The Oshkosh Police Department says a man has died and another has been arrested after a shooting on the 1700 block of Taft Avenue early Saturday morning.
Police say they were dispatched at approximately 4:38 a.m. for a welfare check of a 36-year-old male lying in the hallway of an apartment building.
A 27-year-old male suspect has been arrested for homicide after a more than six-hour standoff ended safely, according to police.
“Yes, that apartment complex seems to be a high police presence always,” said Tim Rait, of Oshkosh. “It’s something they get used to, in a way, but nothing quite to this extent.”
The 1700 block of Taft Avenue was closed off for much of Saturday, but it has since reopened.
