Two Arrested Following Downtown La Crosse Shooting Incident

In the early morning hours of May 27, 2025, a shooting disrupted the peace of downtown La Crosse, Wisconsin, prompting a rapid response from law enforcement and first responders. According to La Crosse Police, the incident occurred near the intersection of 3rd and Main Streets, a busy area frequented by both locals and visitors. The sound of gunfire sent shockwaves through the community, prompting emergency calls and a swift police investigation.

Arrest and Investigation

Following the shooting, law enforcement officers quickly arrived at the scene, secured the area, and began their investigation. Two individuals, whose names have not yet been publicly disclosed, were arrested in connection with the incident. Authorities report that the suspects are believed to have fired shots during a dispute, though the specific motive and whether anyone was directly injured remain under investigation.

Police recovered evidence, including shell casings, and are reviewing surveillance footage to piece together the sequence of events. The suspects face multiple charges, including reckless endangerment and illegal possession of firearms. Investigators are also seeking additional witnesses to come forward with information to aid in the case.
