Summary:
The investigation into last night’s multiple-victim shooting continues. While police cannot discuss specifics of ongoing investigations, Public Safety must clarify a couple points.
First: Based on the investigation, Violent Crime Unit detectives are confident that all shooters have been accounted for from last night’s violence. The shooter(s) were among those who were injured and/or killed. Reporters have asked if a suspect in a triple homicide is on the loose, and the answer is no.
