Yeah. I picked up on that also. Why anyone would feel the need to protect such a animal is beyond me.cirus wrote: Sun Oct 27, 2019 8:02 am So the witnesses aren't cooperating. Sounds like some real upstanding citizens at that party.
750 people there 2 dead 14 wounded and no witnesses? Texas cops have received a lot of negative publicity lately. Maybe it's a trust issue.03Lightningrocks wrote: Sun Oct 27, 2019 8:37 amYeah.

From the story I read, the shooting started after the sheriffs department was already there. They had been called about illegal parking.2farnorth wrote: Sun Oct 27, 2019 10:03 am Wow, 750 attendees! That would take a rather large venue with parking. Can't quite read the JCT sign in the pic. Could be 24, or 224.

There were roughly 750 people at the event, which officials said may have been linked to a fraternity. About 20 people have already been questioned about the shooting, Meeks said, though many questioned what they saw and were unable to provide a detailed description of the suspect.
βIt appalls me that, as many folks that were there, [they] have not been able to give us a better description of this shooter,β Meeks told reporters during a news conference.
Strange. I thought I read in the article the police said it was a one person target and the others got caught in the cross fire. It could still be gang crappola. College kids get caught up in drugs and it can result in gang connections. Twelve years ago in my sons second year at UTA, a kid was shot in the head an apartment behind him that had a common wall. He was selling drugs at school to cover his tuition and owed the wrong people money. I had let him find his own place with a dollar limit and that was the dive he picked. Myself and a friend went out there the next weekend and moved him to a place I picked that cost a couple hundred a month more but was not in the middle of a gang banger hood. That incident scared me to death.philip964 wrote: Sun Oct 27, 2019 7:31 pm So people are saying gang shooting. Any real evidence yet?
Round 2 it would seemDALLAS β A shooting happened after the vigil for Kevin Berry Sunday night in the parking lot of St. Augustine Park.
Berry was one of the people shot and killed in a shooting at a homecoming party in Greenville Saturday night.
WFAA's Matt Howerton was covering the Sunday vigil, and took the following video once he and his photographer got to safety. Howerton said he heard dozens of gunshots:
The shooter is still at large, authorities say. Police said he used a 9mm handgun and that earlier reports that the weapon was a rifle were erroneously based on replica shells scattered around the party space as decorations.
