Milwaukee man sought for deadly hit-and-run incident

Daunte Stamps, a 29-year-old man from Milwaukee, has been charged in a tragic hit-and-run incident that occurred on the city's north side in May. The charges against him include homicide by negligent operation of a vehicle, knowingly operating a motor vehicle while revoked, and hit-and-run resulting in death. Records indicate that a warrant has been issued for his arrest. Previous court documents showed that Stamps had been charged with the same three felonies in May, but the case was dismissed without prejudice in July, allowing prosecutors the option to refile it at a later time. At the time of the crash, it was revealed that Stamps's driver's license had been revoked, with notice of the revocation sent to his address. The incident involved a Chevrolet and a BMW, resulting in the death of a 61-year-old man. Additional details from court filings and witness accounts shed light on the sequence of events leading up to and following the crash. Stamps was identified through forensic evidence, including DNA analysis that linked him to the scene. Authorities made an arrest on May 13 after collecting incriminating evidence. Stamps initially denied involvement but later admitted to being present, claiming he was not driving at the time of the crash. DNA evidence from airbags in the vehicle further supported the case against him.
