MILWAUKEE (AP) — Two off-duty police officers have been killed in separate incidents in southeastern Wisconsin.   Racine police say Officer John Hetland was fatally shot Monday about 9:40 p.m. when he tried to intervene in an armed robbery at Teezers bar. And Milwaukee police say Officer Kou Her died early Tuesday when he was struck by a speeding driver who ran a red light at a Milwaukee intersection. Milwaukee Chief Alfonso Morales says Her had just finished his shift in the 4th District. Police have arrested a 34-year-old man who has a history of drunken driving.  In Racine, multiple law enforcement agencies are searching for the gunman who shot Hetland after the officer tried to stop the armed robbery.
