The Milwaukee County medical examiner has determined a 3-year-old boy found dead in Milwaukee was shot in the head.

The boy, Major P. Harris, and his mother, 25-year-old Mallery Muenzenberger of Onalaska, had been missing since Oct. 9.

Muenzenberger’s body was found in a Milwaukee backyard on Oct. 14. She had been shot to death. The suspect in her slaying, Jaheem Clark, killed himself on last Sunday as police arrived at his residence.

The boy’s body was discovered Thursday in a dumpster. 

There is now a dispute among the relatives of the toddler over where he should be buried.

Major’s father, Carleton Harris, says the boy will be buried in Madison, but the Muenzenberger family wants both mother and son to be buried together in La Crosse County.  They’re trying to persuade Carleton Harris to let that happen.

Police have taken two people into custody in connection with the deaths.
