At street party
Shots fired at revelers in Detroit: dead, injured
Another bloodbath with a firearm in the USA! Numerous revelers were shot at a street party in Detroit (Michigan). Two of them succumbed to their injuries.
The police counted 19 more injured. No suspect has yet been taken into custody, they said. The authorities asked eyewitnesses for information.
According to the local newspaper "The Detroit News", the incident took place in the early hours of the morning (local time) at a street party in a neighborhood where gun violence is common. An eyewitness told the newspaper that many of those present had known each other from school. Local broadcaster Fox 2 reported that the two dead were a 21-year-old woman and a 21-year-old man. The injured are all under 30, five of them only 17 years old.
Gun violence in the USA
Firearms are readily available in the USA and are in circulation on a massive scale. Attacks with many victims regularly rock the country - for example in schools, supermarkets, nightclubs or at large events. However, private disputes, police checks and disputes between criminals and gangs also end fatally far more often than in other countries because so many people carry guns in the USA.
