West Allis - The shooting that forced the closing of the Milwaukee Area Technical College's west campus Tuesday evening was fatal, West Allis police said, but they're not identifying the 17-year-old victim yet.

The shooting was apparently the result of a dispute between two groups of teenagers and young adults who had set up a fight between two males at McKinley Park, 1000 S. 72nd St., according to a police statement.

Police are looking for an 18-year-old Milwaukee man suspected of pulling a gun during a confrontation between the two groups in the 900 block of S. 72nd St. and shooting a 17-year-old boy. The boy fled on foot and collapsed in an MATC parking lot, according to a police statement. Police were called at 5:41 p.m. Tuesday.

Police found the victim there with several gunshot wounds; he was taken to Froedtert Hospital, where he was pronounced dead about 11 p.m.
