SUSPECT:  Cash’Juan R. Butler; 35 years old of Racine
 
On October 14, 2023, at approximately 1:10am, officers responded to the 1000 block of College Ave. for a report of a female who called in that a male party was deceased.  When officers arrived at the residence they located a 39 year old male suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.  Officers learned that the female caller (a 34 year old from Racine) had gotten into a verbal altercation with her 39 year old boyfriend earlier in the evening.  Later on in the night, the 39 year old boyfriend showed up at the address on College Ave. where his girlfriend lives.  Immediately after she let him into the house he began to physically assault her while holding a firearm.  The female's roommate, identified as Cash'Juan Butler, attempted to intervene, but was pushed down the stairs and then returned with a firearm and shot the 39 year old boyfriend.  Currently the Racine Police Department is looking for the whereabouts of Mr. Cash'Juan Butler.  The investigation is ongoing.
 
Racine Police investigators are interested in any additional information that anyone may have about this incident.  Any witnesses, or citizens with information, are urged to call the Racine Police Department Investigations Unit at (262) 635-7756.
