Five teens shot on Detroit’s west side
Oralandar Brand-Williams and George Hunter / The Detroit News
Detroit — Four Detroit Public Schools students and a former student were shot Tuesday afternoon after leaving Cody High School, said Detroit Public Schools spokesman Steve Wasko.

The shooting happened just before 3 p.m. near a bus stop and gas station at the Southfield Freeway service drive and West Warren Avenue. Two men were seen in ski masks approaching the teens — three boys and two girls, ages 14-16 — and said, “You know who we’re looking for” before firing roughly 15 rounds. The two men then drove off in a getaway car, Detroit police said.

The conditions of the teens were not immediately available. The area of the shooting is known for high gang activity.

And those figures were no doubt compiled by someone that graduated from Detoilet public schools!

< 1% means less than one percent, totals are 98% black, 2% other.

“New Falusia ....”

To put it in perspective, there were 309 homicides in Detroit in 2008. This is just slightly lower than the total number of American deaths in Iraq in 2008.

The highest US murder rate is still claimed by New Orleans.

“Maybe shooter was a graduate and, you know, can’t read.”

Since when is learning to read important? Where have I been? I thought that it was more important that he learns to feel good about himself and develops a positive self image? These are qualities one needs in the State Pen...or Obama’s ACORN Thug Corps.

OK, I guess I didn't see the less/than greater/than symbols.

Looked like typical Detoilet math.

7 punks shot no where near the school sounds like a better title...

I really thought this was a school shooting on school grounds... I was mislead.

It was a typical Detroit City gang bang.

Summer School Shooting in Detroit 7 Students Shot

Seeing as how this is Detroit, is 7 above or below average? Are they reporting positive or negative news here?

More democrat schooled future democrat voters just letting off some steam.

Bush and the NRA are the likely scapegoats for this diversity.
