Parking lot cameras at the Tosa Liquor store on North Avenue captured the second of two recent carjackings in the area, and Patch's media partners at WISN News 12 were able to access and publish it.
Neighbors also spoke to WISN for the report, and said that while the two crimes were disturbing, they were relieved to know that two suspects had been arrested. One resident said he was confident that no one would get away with such acts in Wauwatosa for long.
Milwaukee police spotted the black Volvo on May 29 in the Sherman Park neighborhood the day after it was stolen at North Avenue and 66th Street in the second incident, and after a foot chase, arrested two boys, one 16 and one 17.
