Milwaukee, WI - On Wednesday, the 27-year-old suspect who allegedly shot his 23-year-old girlfriend in the left leg during an altercation inside the Potawatomi Bingo Casino, 1721 W. Canal Street has been released from custody, according to both Fox 6 News and  CBS 58 News. No further details have been released by the Milwaukee County District Attorney's Office (DA).

The suspect allegedly shot his girlfriend on June 16, around 1:30 a.m. after her brother tried to defuse an argument between them. Several people inside the casino struggled with the suspect and took control of his weapon after he fired multiple shots. 

The suspect apparently has a felony record and can't carry a conceal weapon, according to court records. The DA says, the case is still open and pending.

No charges have been filed against the 27-year-old suspect.
