MILWAUKEE - Milwaukee police officers Jose Lopez and Alejandro Arce have filed a lawsuit against Badger Guns, a gun store in West Milwaukee.
The officers were injured in a gang shooting three years ago. The gun used was traced back to the gun shop in West Milwaukee.
"This lawsuit is straightforward," said Daniel Vice, an attorney with the Brady Foundation which is representing Arce and Lopez, at a news conference outside the Milwaukee County Courthouse on Thursday morning.
"It seeks to hold Badger Guns accountable for negligent, irresponsible and illegal gun sales that have supplied criminal with guns."

"Badger has had more than 4,000 crime guns traced to its shop. That means that Badger has been notified more than 4,000 times that its business practices are supplying criminals with guns."
The suit also seeks monetary damages.
