Shooting in Brower Park, Sunday 11/7 6AM

mental floss · November 2010

This morning I heard 4 shots fired. Looked out the window but could see nothing. Within minutes police cars were driving all around, and quickly centered on the middle of the park. Several police cars and two ambulances arrived. While I did not see a victim(s), I did see police rope off an area in the middle of the park with crime scene tape, and a few officers stayed for hours combing through the grass in the park.

Does anyone have anymore information on this incident?

states shooting in same location and same time.

(Kingston and Park, 6:09 AM)

....it also states "evidence search", which usually not done when someone just shoots a gun in the air, or shoots at someone and misses.

So, we likely have yet another victim.

SOS was reporting 67 shooting victims and 17 killings as of two weeks ago.
