At a street party – shots fired at Detroit partygoers: dead, injured

Date:

Another gun massacre in the US! Scores of partygoers were gunned down at a street party in Detroit, Michigan. Two of them died from their wounds.

Police counted 19 more wounded. No suspect has been arrested at this time, the report said. Authorities asked eyewitnesses for information.

According to local newspaper The Detroit News, the incident occurred in the early morning hours (local time) at a street festival in a neighborhood where gun violence is common. An eyewitness told the newspaper that many of the attendees had known each other since school. Local station Fox 2 reported that the two dead were a 21-year-old woman and a 21-year-old man. The injured were all under 30, five of them just 17 years old.

Gun Violence in the US
Firearms are readily available and widely distributed in the United States. Mass shootings regularly shock the nation—in schools, supermarkets, nightclubs, or at major events. But private disputes, police stops, and disputes between criminals and gangs also result in death far more often than in other countries, because so many people in the U.S. carry guns.
