The Milwaukee man accused of firing bullets on Interstate 43 between Hampton Avenue and Capitol Drive Friday has been arrested, the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office said. 

Sheriff’s detectives and members of the US Marshal’s Task Force and the ATF Task Force arrested the 24-year-old man Monday afternoon. 

We are not naming him at this time since he has not formally been charged. 

Acting Sheriff Richard Schmidt praised the work of the detectives and task forces, saying, “Working with our task force partners, we were able to pursue and take this dangerous subject off the street. His reckless behavior endangered the lives of many innocent people, and he will be held accountable.”

More on this developing story to come.
