The promoter of an urban music awards event in Milwaukee was one of two people shot during the Saturday night show, which drew 300
people in honor of local artists and anti-violence crusader Jeannetta Robinson. Antonio Greer, CEO of So Be It Management, said Sunday he was shot in the foot on the sidewalk outside the Agape auditorium, and a second victim was inside the door at 3610 W. Villard Ave. Police are seeking the shooter and trying to sort out what happened. Greer said the episode could drive him out of the business after 10 years promoting acts here and around the country, ranging from comedians to R&B singers. Greer, 40, of Milwaukee, said he also runs awards events and charity basketball games. “I’m about to hang my shoes up with this,” Greer said. “This is a wake-up call.” His wife, Shawnda, dived into the doorway of a tavern to avoid the shots, and his daughter Ciarra, 19, was right next to the shooter when he started firing, Greer said. “It’s sad,” Greer said. “You think you are doing something good and this happens.”
Greer said he was recovering at home after treatment at a hospital.
