Milwaukee police arrest three men at addresses tied to abduction of 7-year-old boy
Jamal was found safe Saturday evening.
A 25-year-old was arrested at the home where Jamal was discovered, while police also made arrests of two people at the home from which White was abducted.
The person arrested where White was found, in the 2000 block of N. 39th St., was arrested July 12 at 5:45 p.m. and is in custody for a probation violation.
One of the two people arrested at the home from which White was taken was being held on tentative charges of resisting and obstructing, and the other was being held on a tentative charge of 2nd degree recklessly endangering safety. Both are 27 years old.
It was unclear Sunday if the charges were related to the abduction. Police have not released any details since Jamal was found.
White was abducted outside his home July 11 in the 6200 block of West Hustis Street on the city's northwest side and put into a white Jeep Renegade by an unknown man in a black face mask. He was found close to 24 hours later around six and a half miles away near 39th and Lloyd.
"Jamal has a been located and is safe," Milwaukee police said in a statement at 6:36 p.m. July 12. "The Milwaukee Police Department would like to thank everyone for their assistance in this matter."
Nikki Harrington, one of White's cousins, told the Journal Sentinel she was excited and relieved when she found out White was found alive.

PETA sues Maine Lobster Festival saying the steaming of 16,000 live crustaceans is torture
Animal rights group PETA has filed a lawsuit against the Maine Lobster Festival, claiming the event organizers are torturing lobsters by steaming them to eat. The lawsuit, filed July 24 in Knox County Superior Court, claims the festival and the city of Rockland, where the event is held, are acting in violation of Maine law prohibiting the torture and torment of animals, the Penobscot Bay Pilot reported. PETA is asking the court to deem the festival a 'public nuisance' and ban organizers from steaming lobsters on public land, WMTW reported. PETA argues in the suit that the festival is 'one of the most egregious violations of Maine's animal protection statutes occurring anywhere on public land in the state: the systematic torture of approximately 16,000 live, sentient animals at the Maine Lobster Festival held annually at Harbor Park in Rockland, Maine.' The group's attorneys argued that PETA also filed the lawsuit on behalf of Rockland residents who lose access to walkways, public kayaking and canoeing, intertidal lands, and related civic spaces during the festival. "These individuals cannot access public trust resources without encountering and accepting intolerable conditions: the illegal public torture and killing of thousands of individual sentient lobsters via live steaming." In the suit, PETA argues that because lobsters are sentient beings, they are able to feel pain, and should be protected under Maine law, which requires any method used to kill a sentient creature must cause instantaneous death. PETA argues that the lobsters remain neurologically active and can feel the pain, suffering for several minutes when they are steamed. Meanwhile, event organizers say they're going by the books. An event organizer told WMTW they use 'traditional, lawful and widely accepted cooking methods' when steaming lobsters, and that there is no scientific evidence the crustaceans can feel pain. A hearing has not yet been scheduled for PETA's request for an injunction to stop the steaming of the lobsters. The annual event begins July 30, and runs through August 3.

Watch: Stolen Jaguar Hits Unmarked Police Car Head On
Read the full story on The Auto Wire Most car accidents happen quickly, like this stolen Jaguar which hit an unmarked police car head-on in the UK. The crash was captured on a surveillance camera and shows that even trained officers of the law can sometimes do little or nothing when another driver behaves Jaguar was reportedly going 90 mph the wrong way on a road in Liverpool after 10 pm on December 20, 2024 when it slammed into the unassuming crossover being driven by a cop. That collision crumples the Jaguar's hood and sends the unmarked police unit rolling backwards down the road. Just seconds after the crash, a marked police car with lights going pulls up behind the Jaguar, which Liverpool ECHO says was a classic model just as the driver tries running away. He's collared by one officer while the other approaches the vehicle to take the passengers into custody. Reportedly, the Jaguar had been stolen just moments before from a retired classic car collector. The thieves smashed through one of the windows of his house, then threatened the frightened elderly man with a hammer, taking cash and the keys to his Jaguar before driving off in the vehicle. With police in hot pursuit, the suspects decided to try out the British sports car's V8, pushing it to ridiculous speeds for narrow city streets. While the driver was okay after the crash, his accomplices weren't. A teenager who was in the front passenger seat suffered an injury to his leg. The guy who was in the backseat wasn't belted in, so in the collision he was thrown into the center console. Both police officers in the unmarked car were injured as well. One suffered 'bruising and pain' which doesn't sound too bad, but the other has 'permanent scarring' on his hip. In a 90 mph head-on crash, it's lucky nobody was killed.
