One person was killed and three others, including a 15-year-old girl, were injured when shots rang out after midnight Monday in a crowded Walmart parking lot in upstate New York that police say was crowded with hundreds of people.

Shots rang out in a crowd around 12:50 a.m. Four people were driven to Rochester General Hospital in separate vehicles.

An 18-year-old man was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at the hospital. His death marked the 35th homicide in Rochester this year and the 12th in June, according to the Democrat & Chronicle. A 43-year-old man suffered serious injuries, Umbrino said. And two others, a 23-year-old man and a 15-year-old girl, both suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

Since Covid our Walmarts have been closing at night. They all have huge parking lots so the street racers congregate there at all hours. We had a brawl in the middle of the night at one of ours a few months back.

WalMart parking lots are small communities in places. The homeless park overnight, with all that that entails. The local WM finally cracked down and trespassed everyone.

Transient tourist traffic is also welcome. Clarence Thomas might drop in when out RVing.

Yup. Found it.

I've noticed since the Wuhanic Plague lockdowns started that younger folks started congregating in store parking lots because everywhere else was shut down.

They'd pull up in their vehicles and just hang out like kids did in the 1980s.

Hundreds of people hanging out in a parking lot after midnight on a Sunday. And not a single one late to work Monday morning.

They all work for the government, well, they keep our unemployment offices humming.

And this Walmart wasn’t open at that time either. It was a lighted area for the teens to congregate in and do their thing. Apparently the ‘doing their thing’ got a bit over heated and shots rang out.

Shooting is doing their thing.

Once again, someone was overheard deprecating the writings of Proust. Naturally, violence was the only resort.

Street racers have been known to brawl. Usually just a brawl with no firearms involved.

Come on FOX, you can say it. Closed store + hundreds of people + shootings = black gangs doing what they do.

You must have a different demographic than where I live. Doesn’t matter what kind of gathering it is, if there’s trouble there’s always a firearm involved. And yes, someone got shot at the ‘brawl’ that made the news.

*************

Not necessarily but in this case it was a “THING”. Not all
things are perfect in this life on Earth. But life goes on.

Not all individuals in the group were shooting.

“There was at least one fight that broke out,” Umbrino said.
“Simultaneous to that fight breaking out, there were multiple
gunshots fired from multiple different weapons. It’s unknown
if those gunshots were the result of the initial fight or if there
was another altercation.”

"His death marked the 35th homicide in Rochester this year"

That's almost 6 homicides per month. According to Rochester NY Crime data:

- Rochester crime rates are 69% higher than the national average
- Violent crimes in Rochester are 97% higher than the national average
- In Rochester you have a 1 in 24 chance of becoming a victim of crime
- Rochester is safer than 6% of the cities in the United States
As with everything the Demonicrats control, Rochester has become just another Demonicrat sh!thole.

Some claim the gathered crowd split into two violently opposing groups, one supporting Albert Einstein’s ‘independent reality’ interpretation of quantum mechanics, while the other group supported Niels Bohr’s probabilistic QM interpretation with no hidden variables.
