Milwaukee police were already seeking Jazmin Fair, 18, as a suspect in the robberies when he chased Suraju Lawal, his stepfather, out of their home on Capitol Drive and wounded him with a shotgun blast on May 14, court and police records show. Two days earlier, a 17-year-old boy from Milwaukee had been arrested in the robberies and implicated Fair as an accomplice.
