Overnight, nine people were shot and wounded in Washington D.C., including at least two juveniles. It sounds like a gang-related shooting – but, of course, the Leftists are blaming guns – as if criminals will obey more draconian gun laws.
Nine people were shot and wounded, including two juveniles, early Wednesday in Washington, D.C., police said.
Shortly before 1 a.m., police responded to a report of a shooting on Meade Street in the northeastern quadrant of the U.S. capital, Assistant Chief Leslie Parsons of the Metropolitan Police Department said in a statement on Twitter.
Upon their arrival officers discovered multiple shooting victims, including a 9-year-old and a 17-year-old, Parsons said.
A dark colored SUV seen driving through the neighborhood, stopped and then shot at the victims outside enjoying the July Fourth holiday, Parsons said, calling the shooting targeted.
Several victims were transported to local hospitals by D.C. Fire and EMS while others transported themselves. All the victims suffered non-life threatening injuries, Parsons said. None were immediately identified.
It was not immediately clear if there was more than one shooter in the vehicle and no arrests have been made. . . . .
