She told the outlet that she cannot afford child care, so the mother had her three daughters, ages one, five, and nine, with her as she made deliveries on Thursday.<\/p>\n[embedded content]\n<p>She said that she stopped for a pickup at the Shake Shack at the 200 Block of East Buffalo Street, and one of her girls needed to use the restroom, so she took her keys and went in to ask staff if they could accommodate her daughter.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWhen I opened the door, they said, \u2018Somebody\u2019s stealing your car,&#8217;\u201d she told WISN.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy daughters were still in the car, I didn\u2019t have a chance to get them out,\u201d the DoorDash driver <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbs58.com\/news\/delivery-driver-recounts-attempted-carjacking-that-led-to-shooting-of-off-duty-milwaukee-detective\">told<\/a> WDJT. \u201cThey said that when he got in he heard my little one say something and said, \u2018whoa\u2019 and jumped out and left.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The MPD stated the suspect then jumped in another vehicle and started to leave the scene.

A struggle ensued, at which time the suspect brandished a firearm. The suspect fired multiple rounds at the off-duty detective, striking him multiple times, and fled the scene. The detective returned gunfire.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The detective was shot in the abdomen, according to WISN. \u201cHe sustained life-threatening injuries\u201d and was subsequently transported to a local hospital and later was in stable condition, the MPD stated.
