MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- U.S. Marshals are looking for 32-year-old Jerry Stewart.

Stewart is charged with two counts of strangulation, three counts of battery and six counts of bail jumping in connection with a single incident on September 18th.

Stewart is 6'3'' and weighs 155 pounds. He has a scar under his left eye. U.S. Marshals say he may be in the area of 3rd and Keefe.

Anyone with information on his whereabouts should call U.S. Marshals at 414-297-3707.
