Protests came after Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm announced Wednesday that Wauwatosa Officer Joseph Mensah would not be charged for fatally shooting 17-year-old Alvin Cole outside Mayfair Mall on Feb. 2. Cole was the third person Mensah has fatally shot since becoming an officer, and his death has sparked periodic protests in Wauwatosa and the Milwaukee area. There’s no body-camera video of the Cole shooting because Wauwatosa’s officers aren’t equipped with them. Cole’s death sparked protests in Wauwatosa throughout the summer, including in and around the mall and outside a house where Mensah was staying. Police have said Mensah shot Gonzales eight times after he refused to drop a sword.

Wauwatosa Officer Joseph Mensah shot 17-year-old Alvin Cole outside Mayfair Mall on Feb. 2 after police responded to a reported disturbance at the shopping center. ā€œHe did not surrender the weapon and was fired upon by Officer Mensah causing his death,ā€ Chisholm wrote. There’s no body-camera video of the Cole shooting because Wauwatosa’s officers aren’t equipped with them. Police have said Mensah shot Gonzales eight times after he refused to drop a sword. Evers also activated the state’s National Guard in August, the morning after a Kenosha police officer shot Jacob Blake, a Black man, in the back.
