Dan Isom says the city is working to implement strategies to control the gun violence. Urban League leader points to neighborhood engagement as a possible answer.
Earlier in the evening, police responded to a shooting in the 3000 block of Miami St. and found a girl, 13, who had been shot in the leg; a man, 36, with a graze wound to his head; and another man, 28, with gunshot wounds to his buttocks. All three are in stable condition at local hospitals.
There was a double shooting in the 1000 block of Cole St., with a 24-year-old man suffering from a gunshot wound to his torso, and a man, 23, with a gunshot wound to his foot, who left the scene after being treated by EMS.
An early investigation suggested the victims were in front of a residence when a large fight broke out and shots were fired by an unknown suspect.
