Is this gun violence or gang violence?
Gangs aren’t violent. Guns are.
OK I was able to track down a description of the suspect at large from RT. The local papers were with holding the information to avoid stereotyping people.

But the description included several details that set the suspect’s appearance apart from the vast majority of Austin’s population – potentially a safety benefit for local residents. Police clearly considered it worth telling the public, saying one of the suspects was a “black male with dreadlocks, wearing a black shirt and a skinny build.”
Many social media users said the media outlet was putting its political agenda ahead of public safety. “They are literally putting people’s lives at risk just to be politically correct,” one commenter said. “I bet if their children were in that area, they would tell them to stay away from anyone matching the description.”
