West Allis Police Release Timeline Detailing Incidents at State Fair

Fox 6 Now (Milwaukee), August 10, 2011

The Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Department released 911 audio from the opening night of State Fair. These tapes display the graphic details of the attacks, some of which were racially motivated. We also spoke with someone who could put that part of the story in perspective.

Most callers tell dispatchers they see a racially motivated melee. One caller told dispatchers, “A whole bunch of black dudes f—– jumped on me. I’m bleeding all over.”

West Allis Police recently released a statement on what took place at State Fair on opening night. They say there are currently nine assaults, one robbery without a weapon and one attempted robbery with a weapon being investigated.

{snip} The suspects have been described as African Americans. The victims were either Caucasian or Hispanic.

Arno Michaels understands all too well the hate driven mob mentality as a former leader of Milwaukee’s white power movement more than 20 years ago. He says, “When I was that age I made these kids look like Boy Scouts. I routinely attacked people, because of the color of their skin.”
