The young man arrested after he was caught on video loading a pistol inside the library at UW-Milwaukee says he was simply there to get high.
Prosecutors in Milwaukee say 25-year-old Elmo Daniels told them he had a gun, and pulled it out in the library. But he says he was just there to get high. Police arrested Daniels last week after he left the library. The D.A. says Daniels also admitted to sometimes sleeping at the library, and going there to use the library’s wifi.
He was freed after his arrest, and UW-Milwaukee Police are now asking for help in finding him.
