Sun Prairie Police Department Media Release
From: Lieutenant Kevin Konopacki
Date: October 9, 2019
Subject: Shooting Incident at 311 Park Circle



On Tuesday October 8, 2019 at approximately 10:30pm the Sun Prairie Police Department received a call of a reported shooting in apartment 311 of the 300 building of the Element on Main apartment complex. Officers located a 23-year-old male with a gunshot wound to his left upper arm. The victim was transported to a local hospital and is in stable condition.

The 23-year-old male was able to identify the shooter as his 16-year-old younger brother but was not willing to provide a further statement to police.

With the help of the Fond Du Lac County Sheriff’s department, the 16- year-old male juvenile suspect was taken into custody during a traffic stop in Fond Du Lac County. The juvenile male suspect was subsequently transported to the Dane County Juvenile Reception Center and is tentatively being charged with 1st Degree Reckless Endangering Safety.

This is an active investigation and more details will be made available when they are able to be released; however, this was clearly a targeted incident and not a random act. Anyone with further information regarding this incident is asked to contact the Sun Prairie Police Department Non-Emergency Line at 608-837-7336, or anonymously at (608) 837-6300.
