died at the hospital as a result of his injuries suffered during an ambush shooting in the 2200 block of North 24th Place while responding to reports of someone with a weapon in an area nearby.
Officer Corder was responding to a shots fired call last week and ran toward danger when he was shot in the line of duty and ultimately passed away from his injuries. Our hearts break for Officer Corder, his family, loved ones, colleagues at the Milwaukee Police Department, and the greater Milwaukee community, and we join Milwaukeeans and Wisconsinites in honoring the life of this dedicated public servant. Kathy and I will continue to keep his family and loved ones and all those who knew Officer Corder in our thoughts and our prayers as they mourn his loss and this merciless tragedy.
Gov. Evers
The governor's latest order will have the flags of the United States and the state of Wisconsin flown at half-staff from sunrise to sunset on Friday, July 11, in honor of Officer Corder's interment.

DC 33 wraps up voting on tentative deal with Parker administration, results expected to be released Monday
Residents in Philadelphia's Spring Garden neighborhood put out their trash Sunday night confident that their Monday pickup would happen. But will that be the case in the days ahead? A week and a half ago, AFSCME District Council 33, with about 9,000 members, reached a tentative three-year agreement with the city of Philadelphia. The deal includes a 3% raise for each year. That agreement needs to be ratified by a majority of the union's members to go into effect. Over the past week, through Sunday afternoon, members voted in person at union headquarters in University City. The union represents sanitation workers and other employees across multiple city departments, from police dispatchers and crossing guards to maintenance workers at Philadelphia International Airport. All votes will be counted at the District 33 headquarters on Monday. That's when results are expected to be announced. In the meantime, many residents are left to wait and hope for the best. Amber Daddezio and AJ Burton saw the trash mounds around Graduate Hospital and in North Philadelphia, where they live. While they hate to think about another potential halt to pickups, they also understand. "It makes me nervous," Daddezio said. "They're not paid nearly enough for this incredibly important hard work that they're doing every single day," Burton said. It's a similar sentiment from Scout Woodhouse, who's willing to sacrifice a few more days if it means a fair deal for those who help keep the city running. "They are the backbone of the city. They help operations and daily functions, and they deserve more," Woodhouse said.

Dallas Bishop Arts District crash that injured seven sparks safety concerns and causes power outage
Dallas police are investigating a crash that caused panic in the Bishop Arts District Saturday night. Four cars were involved and seven people were injured. "Cars were flipped over. It was a four-car pile-up; it's crazy," said witness Anthony Ozuna. "You see a car on top of another car, and it's one of those, like, how does that car get there?" Police said the accident happened just before 11 p.m. on North Tyler Street, right off Davis Street. Several businesses said they lost power when the car rammed into a utility pole. People who were out and about ran over to help. "All of our guests and staff jumped into action. It was probably about 100 people out here," said Jake Cruz, who works at a bar nearby. Investigators said the suspected driver crashed into a car at a stoplight, causing a chain reaction. First responders transported seven victims to the hospital in stable condition, and said the suspect was critically injured. "I mean, I think you worry about it because you have a house right here. It's a residential area right next to a busy club area," said Ozuna. Just down the street from the scene, there's a roundabout; two dangerous crashes have been reported there this year. The most recent crash was in May. Councilmember Chad West has addressed the issues at that intersection in the past and said, "This latest collision at Tyler and Davis reaffirms why the city's Public Works Department must take aggressive action to ensure pedestrians, residents and small businesses are safe. It's past time for the city to enhance traffic calming measures in this corridor and speeding enforcement." Police have not said what led up to Saturday's crash. At last check, the Public Works Department was conducting a study on the roundabout. West said it has yet to be completed.
