The George Webb shooting suspects have been identified as:

Jadin D. Calbert (09/24/01)
Breanta J. Johnson (05/18/01)
Bryanna J. Johnson (05/08/01)
Heaven K. Williams (08/22/02)

Breanta J. Johnson and Bryanna J. Johnson were charged Monday with attempted first-degree intentional homicide with use of a dangerous weapon and party to a crime modifiers. Cash bond was set at $100,000 each.

There is a GoFundMe page to help the victim, an employee named Anthony. It reads, “In the early morning hours of January 30, Anthony was working as a waiter on the overnight shift when some customers got upset, pushed him down, and shot him in the face. They then proceeded to stomp on him before leaving. Anthony was rushed to the hospital, where the staff worked hard to stabilize him and ultimately saved his life. Anthony is a hard worker, just doing what he can to support his 3 year old son.”

According to Wauwatosa Police:

Wauwatosa Police arrested four adult females in connection with the fight and shooting at
George Webb which occurred on Sunday, January 30th, 2022. 

Around 12:15am, on Sunday January 30th, Wauwatosa Police responded for the report of a
shooting at 12201 W North Ave. Officers and investigators determined that an argument over food service between an employee and a group of customers led to a physical altercation which ended with a female subject firing one shot, striking the employee in the face. The suspects then fled the scene.

Investigators immediately worked to develop suspects and a suspect vehicle using information provided by witnesses and video surveillance from the area.

Today, Wauwatosa Police took four suspects into custody without incident. Two search warrants were executed at residences in the City of Milwaukee and additional evidence was recovered. Investigators are continuing the investigation and this case will be referred to the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office in the coming days.

Between the time of the incident and arrests, multiple leads were obtained which resulted in numerous hours of investigation. It is important to stress that these types of investigations not only require the identification of a suspect but preservation of evidence related to the crime.

This presents a cautious balance of what to release to the public versus potential destruction of that evidence. Understand, in almost every incident we have more information than we release as we cannot risk compromising the recovery of evidence, information or location of any suspects.

Our initial investigation led us to believe that this was an isolated event and therefore no immediate danger to the public existed. Photos of our suspects and their vehicle were not released to media for fear of compromising the investigation and potential destruction of evidence.

The Wauwatosa Police Department would like to thank the officers and investigators for their diligence, quick work and professionalism in taking the suspects into custody without further violence.


George Webb Employee GoFundMe Account

The GoFundMe account set up for the employee has raised more than $19,200. An update on it from Anthony’s mother says:

“I cannot thank everyone enough for the outpouring of love, support and prayers. We had quite a challenging Dr visit Friday but it’s a new week and I’m hopeful we’ll make better progress.

As most of you know Anthony was shot directly in the face. Anthony lost his teeth and a major portion of his tongue on the right side of his face. He has bullet fragments in his sinuses and lungs and the bullet severed a major artery in his neck and remains in his neck. He is a fighter! And refused to remain in the trauma unit/hospital and is home with family, most importantly to be with his son.

This senseless act of violence will impact him the rest of his life, physically and emotionally but knowing him, he won’t let it stop him or his life. The support the community has show gives me hope for our society and for Anthony. Knowing he won’t fall too deep into debt, or have to rebuild every angle of his life really relieves a lot of stress and pressures. Your support will help him focus on his physical, mental and spiritual healing and not worry about the day to day stress of living.”

Trump Expands Gulf of America Oil & Natural Gas Production

Reversing Biden administration policies that halted offshore leasing, prompting lawsuits and restricting oil and natural gas development, the Trump administration is expanding offshore capabilities.

Interior Secretary Doug Burgum directed the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management to hold the administration’s first offshore lease sales in the Gulf of America, with the first proposed notice of sale slated for June.

“By continuing to expand offshore capabilities, the United States ensures affordable energy for consumers, strengthens domestic industry and reinforces its role as an energy superpower,” the Interior Department says. “Opening the Outer Continental Shelf is central to this strategy as it unleashes domestic energy potential that had been blocked under the previous administration,” and is expected to generate tens of thousands of high-paying jobs throughout the industry.

The BOEM also released a new analysis stating that a significant increase of estimated oil and natural gas reserves exists in the Gulf of America Outer Continental Shelf. BOEM’s updated assessment evaluated more than 140 oil and natural gas fields, identifying 18 new discoveries, and analyzed more than 37,000 reservoirs across 1,336 fields in the Gulf.

It says there’s an “additional 1.3 billion barrels of oil equivalent since 2021, bringing the total reserve estimate to 7.04 billion barrels of oil equivalent. This includes 5.77 billion barrels of oil and 7.15 trillion cubic feet of natural gas – a 22.6% increase in remaining recoverable reserves.”

“This new data confirms what we’ve known all along – America is sitting on a treasure trove of energy, and under President Trump’s leadership, we’re unlocking it,” Burgum said. “The Gulf of America is a powerhouse, and by streamlining permitting and expanding access, we’re not just powering our economy – we’re strengthening our national security and putting thousands of Americans back to work.”

The comprehensive review added 4.39 billion barrels of oil equivalent in original reserves, BOEM found. “After subtracting production of 3.09 billion barrels of oil equivalent since 2020–2021, the net increase reflects continued opportunity and momentum in offshore development,” it says.

“The Gulf of America is delivering 14% of the nation’s oil,” BOEM Gulf of America Regional Director Dr. James Kendall said. “These updated estimates reaffirm the Gulf’s vital role in ensuring a reliable, affordable domestic energy supply.”

The BOEM oversees nearly 3.2 billion acres of the Outer Continental Shelf, with roughly 160 million acres located in the Gulf.

“Energy dominance is a pillar of U.S. economic strength and global leadership,” the Interior Department argues. “By expanding offshore capabilities, the United States ensures affordable energy for consumers, creates high-paying jobs, and reduces dependence on foreign adversaries. … Expanded leasing is projected to create tens of thousands of jobs across exploration, production, logistics and supply chains — revitalizing coastal economies and fueling American innovation.”

Shell Offshore Inc., a subsidiary of Shell plc, also announced it is beginning production at Dover, a second subsea tieback connecting new wells to existing infrastructure of its Appomattox production hub in the Gulf of America. Dover’s estimated peak production is 20,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day, it says.

Shell is the leading deep-water operator in the Gulf of America; Dover was discovered under the first Trump administration in 2018.

It’s located in Mississippi Canyon, roughly 170 miles offshore southeast of New Orleans.

Shell estimates that Dover will “contain 44.5 million barrels of oil equivalent recoverable resources, adding stable, secure energy resources.”

Outer Continental Shelf oil and gas activities have generated billions of dollars in revenue from lease sales, rental fees and royalties to the federal government and states, helping to fund infrastructure, education and public services and wildlife conservation. They also help strengthen U.S. energy independence, national security and global stability, by reducing reliance on foreign producers, the Trump administration argues.

Offshore production in the Gulf of America accounts for the third greatest volume in the country, of nearly 1.8 million barrels of oil per day, according to Energy Information Agency data from January. The greatest volume is produced in the Permian Basin in west Texas, which leads the U.S. in oil and natural gas production, The Center Square reported.
