A parade intended to show unity and support for the city's rebuilding was instead marred by violence Sunday when shots rang out, wounding three people as the event drew to a close.
Not long after the parade wrapped up, police officers patrolling the route heard gunfire. They then found a 34-year-old man with multiple wounds, police spokesman Gary Flot said.
Minutes later, after more shots rang out, officers discovered an 18- year-old woman wounded in the leg. A man, 20, also was shot in the leg, in the same area.

Can't blame it on the summer heat.
Wondering which hospital received the trauma case.

Looks like Nagan's got the downtown restored but now he has to get some residents back.

"Looks like Nagan's got the downtown restored but now he has to get some residents back." Yup. Only three shot, must be a shortage of targets.

"shots rang out"
This is such a dopey phrase but it gets used over and over again.
It is as if a gun doesn't need a shooter -- or bullets don't need a gun!
