The shocking twist in Sunday’s triple Milwaukee tragedy came as a manhunt continued for the gunman who killed both 15-year-old Rasheed Chiles and the driver who ran over Rasheed’s baby brother.

Little Damani Terry was killed when he darted into the path of a van driven by Archie Brown Jr.
The tragic accident prompted the double murder, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett said at an emotional press conference.

Brown, a father of four daughters, stopped and was grieving over the Damani’s body when the unidentified gunman shot him in the head, police said.

Chiles, who had taken Damani to house party, was shot in the shoulder when he went to check on his kid brother lying dead in the street, cops said.

The teen was taken to a hospital, where he died during surgery.

“It started out as a tragedy, as an accident,” Barrett said. “But the total loss of control, the total inability to control one’s self in that setting, led to two more tragic deaths.”

Barrett said someone at the party, which Damani wandered away from, got angry and “basically assassinated” Brown, then fired the shots that hit Rasheed.

Police were still trying to identify the killer Monday night.

Michael Hupy, a Milwaukee attorney and community activist, offered a $25,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the gunman.

“I’m not going to sit back and let this city become like Syria,” said Hupy, explaining why he put up the bounty for the killer.
