More than 200 Downtown neighbors of slain UW-Madison student Brittany Sue Zimmermann remembered her with a moment of silence on Saturday before meeting with local leaders to discuss their fears and share ideas for improving safety.
City and university officials, their voices cracking with emotion, said they take Zimmermann ‘s murder personally because they either live near her apartment at 517 W. Doty St., where her body was found about 1 p.m. Wednesday, or they lived in the area during their days as UW-Madison students.
