A Canadian man visiting Wisconsin for a golf trip was sh*t and k*lled in a drive-by sh*oting while walking back to his hotel, according to multiple local reports.
Police found the victim, Giovanni Michael “Mike” Robinson, 32, suffering from a gunsh*t wound around 12:08 a.m. local time on Wednesday in Sheboygan Falls, according to local police. Despite life-saving measures and medical attention, Robinson was pronounced dead at the scene.
Sources tell Global News that Robinson is originally from the town of Stouffville, Ont., and was a former player in the Ontario Hockey League.
In a media release on Wednesday, the Sheboygan Falls Police Department said they are actively investigating.
“Officers are working diligently to gather evidence and interview witnesses to determine the circumstances surrounding the incident. At this time, no suspects have been apprehended,” police said.

The preliminary investigation revealed that the victim was sh*t by an unknown individual driving a vehicle.
“The motive behind the sh*oting is unclear. The suspect vehicle is only described as a small, dark colored SUV,” police added. “To maintain the integrity of the ongoing investigation, limited details will be released at this time.”
His family said he sent them a photo on Tuesday celebrating his first-ever hole-in-one at a golf course.
Robinson’s brother and sister-in-law also told TMJ4 that family members are now travelling to Wisconsin to find answers. Robinson’s sister-in-law commented on the Sheboygan Falls police Facebook page, confirming the victim was her brother-in-law.
“He’s a Canadian and was there golfing,” Jess wrote on the Facebook page. “He was only 32, had just had his first baby in August, and got a hole-in-one that day. This is a nightmare.”
No suspect or motive has been identified.
The Sheboygan Falls Police Department told Global News that any further updates will be posted to their Facebook page.
A spokesperson for Global Affairs Canada told Global News in an email it was aware of the incident.
“We extend our deepest condolences to the family and loved ones,” they wrote.
“Consular officials are in contact with local authorities to gather additional information and are in contact with the family to provide consular assistance. Due to privacy considerations, no further information can be disclosed.”
Robinson’s cousin Daniella Apostolakos started a GoFundMe campaign to help support the Robinson family “during this unimaginably tragic and difficult time.”
“In the early morning of September 24th, after celebrating his first hole-in-one on a golf trip in Wisconsin, Mikes life was senselessly taken during a drive by sh*oting,” the page read. “The investigation is still on going and Authorities are doing their best to catch the monster that took his life. We are hopeful and will update as more information comes forward.”
“We hope this will help ease any financial burden that may come their way as well as support Farrah as she grows up and navigates life without her Father,” the page added. “Please keep the Robinson family in your thoughts and prayers as they try to navigate this new normal.”
The GoFundMe campaign has raised more than $145,000 of its goal of $180,000 from more than 800 donations as of Friday morning.
