MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- At a DPW meeting on Wednesday Operations Director Laura Daniels talked about Tuesday's incident where a Milwaukee garbage truck was hit by gunfire, "Well, fortunately, they were uninjured by that, but they are traumatized so we referred to an employee's assistance program for whatever is prescribed for them. We are concerned about their well being." 

Alderman Bob Donovan referred to the incident as a "sad state of affairs" and asked city workers to stay alert.

Milwaukee Police say the shooting happened Tuesday around 9:15 a.m. near 19th and Hadley. Anyone with information is asked to call police at 935-7360.
