Re: Another Shooting
And then this happened (yesterday in the early hours) at where I went when I chose to go north:
1 teen killed, 2 others and infant hurt in Lansing shooting this morning
The shooting earlier this week occurred at the corner of Cedar and Aurelius, about a mile southeast of this shooting. The three streets create a triangle, and I live at about the midpoint of Aurelius.

Baytown vigil for homicide victim turns into 'nightmare' as gunfire kills 1, injures 13
https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/h ... =sftwitter
"We released the balloons and then boom, boom, boom," said Bernita Pace. "Nobody knew who it was coming from...It's a nightmare."
One person was fatally shot and 13 others were injured when an unknown suspect or suspects opened fire around 6:40 p.m. at an outdoor food truck on the 1400 block of North Market Loop, where the group was holding the vigil, according to the Harris County Sheriff's Office.
Authorities on Monday identified the person killed as Disha Allen, a 25-year-old Humble woman. She was pronounced dead at a hospital.
Pace said her 36-year-old son Joshua Pace was among those wounded in the spray of bullets. She was standing next to him when he was shot in both hips. He remains hospitalized but is expected to survive.

Re: Another Shooting
SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) — A man was accidentally shot dead inside his Savannah home on Dec. 5 by a child just under 2 years old, Savannah Police Chief Roy Minter confirmed Tuesday.
According to the Savannah Police Department (SPD), Dustin Walters was taken to Memorial Health where he later died. The shooting happened around 5:30 p.m. inside a home on the 100 block of East 64th Street, between Habersham and Abercorn streets.
Minter said the toddler found the gun and fatally struck Walters, but would not disclose further details per the family’s request for privacy. SPD says the man’s family members were there when it happened.
“We grieve along with the Walters family,” Minter said Tuesday. “As a parent, I cannot imagine what this family is going through or will continue to go through in the coming years.
“What we want to make sure now is that parents are aware that although rare, these incidents can happen with tragic results. Please take this seriously and take the steps to ensure that you and your family members are safe.”
SPD continued to urge gun owners to lock up their weapons and to visit its headquarters or their local precinct for a free gunlock.
“This amplifies our need for gun safety,” Mayor Van Johnson said.

Re: Another Shooting
14-year-old arrested for Garland shooting that left 3 teens dead, 1 injured
By Alex Boyer
Published December 27, 2021 5:15PM
Police said a 14-year-old suspect is now in custody for the murders of three other teenagers at a Garland convenience store. Police are still looking for a man they want to question about the shootings.
GARLAND, Texas - Garland police have arrested a 14-year-old for shooting four teenagers, killing three of them, at a gas station.
The police department released video of the teen opening fire inside the Texaco station on Walnut Lane in Garland Sunday evening.
Police said he got out of the passenger side of a pickup truck, walked up to the front door and fired at least 20 shots into the store before getting back into the truck and leaving.
All the victims were teenagers between the ages of 14 and 17 years.
Police said two of them came into the store together. The Dallas County Medical Examiner identified them as 15-year-old Ivan Noyola and 17-year-old Rafael Garcia.
The youngest victim was 14-year-old Xavier Gonzales. Garland Police Chief Jeff Bryan said it appears he was just in the wrong place at this wrong time. He was ordering tacos for his family when he was killed.
The lone survivor was a 15-year-old store employee. According to his boss, he started working at the taqueria just last week.
Rodolfo Quevedo Sanchez said got a frantic call from the employee saying he had just been shot.
"The guy say, ‘Oh you need to come here quickly.’ I say, ‘Okay, I’ll be there 10 or five minutes as soon as possible. But when I come here the police is right there," the taqueria owner said. "I’m scared, man, because we work here like a family. I’m sorry that this happened. I apologize to the victims. I’m so, so sorry."
Garland police are looking for another suspect in a triple murder at a gas station. They've already arrested a 14-year-old for shooting four teenagers between the ages of 14 and 17.
Chief Bryan said investigators still trying to determine if this was a targeted attack.
"It’s difficult for me, for my officers and for my community because we want to know why we don’t have an answer to why we’re trying to comprehend this, and we don’t yet comprehend this. But we have a job to do," he said.
He would not elaborate on how they came to identify and arrest the 14-year-old suspect because the investigation is still ongoing.

Based on new information in the investigation, the 14-year-old is not being charged at this time, and has been released to his family.
“Now he still remains a person of interest, but there is information that leads to believe someone else may have pulled the trigger,” said Garland Police spokesperson Lt. Pedro Barineau.

Police said they are still are actively pursuing leads and have executed several search warrants.
“We now believe that one or more of the victims who were shot inside the were involved in a previous disturbance with which, what believe to be the shooter who pulled the trigger,” said Lt. Barineau.
The shooting was captured on surveillance video.
It shows a shirtless boy or man with a handgun approaching the gas station store while crouched. He swings open the door and starts shooting from the doorway.

Lakewood Police Agent Ferris is my shero too, TRL. Belmar is our local shopping center. Mrs. Gneiss had finished her shopping there just an hour before the madness occurred.
A close friend and her sister were in a Belmar restaurant when the gunman walked in, went behind the bar and poured himself a drink. When confronted by the bartender he brandished a gun. After a couple of patrons approached the madman, he miraculously decided to leave.

Re: Another Shooting
It's surprising (or not) that this story didn't get much media attention. I think the national media has gotten a bit lazy or corporate editorial decisions are made to downplay this stuff. It seems like there are 3 stories that just get beaten to death and you have to really work to see what else is going on in the world. Information Age, Ha!

https://www.cbs17.com/news/over-65-guns ... -injure-6/
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Two gunmen fired more than 65 rounds on a Philadelphia street, sending nighttime pedestrians on a busy block teeming with markets and restaurants scrambling for cover and injuring six people, at least one of them critically, police said Friday.
Police responded around 11:30 p.m. Thursday in the Germantown neighborhood and found a 21-year-old woman shot multiple times in the abdomen and chest and lying near dozens of spent casings. Officers rushed her to the hospital, where she was in critical condition Friday.
Five men ages 19 to 29 were taken with gunshot wounds by private vehicles to two hospitals, police said. All were expected to survive.
Officers are looking at surveillance footage, Chief Inspector Scott Small told reporters late Thursday.
