The officers were responding to a call of shots fired when they were "unexpectedly fired upon," officials said.

The Milwaukee Police Department did not identify Jones in a June 27 statement announcing a suspect's arrest, but two sources confirmed the name to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and he was listed in a booking log.

Two Milwaukee police officers were ambushed and shot in an alley near North 24th Place and West Garfield Avenue, leaving one critically wounded.
