Mom speaks out after son is shot in the neck outside nightclub

Police say 29-year-old, Dominic Kyles was shot in the neck near 40 th and West Fond Du Lac in Milwaukee shortly before 2:00 AM on January 17 th . His friend, a 36-year-old man was shot in the leg as well.

“One bullet, one bullet changes so much,” Kyles’s mother, Larissa Walker said.

One bullet changed the life of Walker’s son. “He was paralyzed from the neck down. That is what the doctor told me over the phone before I got here.”

Walker said Kyles was enjoying a night out with his friends. “It does not make sense at all,” she said.

Investigators believe Kyles and his friends were told to leave the bar. According to the criminal complaint, “security guards appeared to anticipate further problems with Kyles or his friends.”

“And when the friend stood outside the car, security ran out the bar from across the street and opened fire and the bullet struck Dominic in his spine and shattered his spine,” Walker explained.

Police say Shawn Leroy Kidd, a security guard at the nightclub was charged with recklessly endangering safety. According to the criminal complaint, Kidd is seen firing shots along with another security guard.
