Thousands of fans got stuck with police taping off several intersections nearby.

The Milwaukee Fire Department said one man and one woman shot were transported to the hospital Friday night, while a third person drove there. All three have non-life-threatening injuries.

Police said a 29-year-old man is in custody.

The Bucks announced before the game that the Deer District had officially reached the 11,000-person capacity set for the watch party before Game 6. Moreover, about 17,700 people spectated the match at Fiserv Forum.

Witnesses outside the arena said they heard gunshots with a little more than a minute remaining in the fourth quarter of Boston's 108-95 victory, which sent many in the crowd into a frenzy, running in several different directions.

A large police presence remained outside the arena hours after the game's conclusion. An investigation is ongoing.
