As merriment turned to terror around Richmond’s Monroe Park, other people were hurt as they tried to escape the gunfire, including a 9-year-old girl who was hit by a car, Richmond Interim Police Chief Rick Edwards told reporters Tuesday night.

Police initially detained two people but later said one was not involved. The other – a 19-year-old who investigators think may have known one of the victims and had four handguns – was held Tuesday night and police will recommend two counts of second-degree murder against him, Edwards said.

No gun control spiel, despite CNN being involved in the coverage. Could be they're worn out, too?

In violent crimes and murder scenes

you'll always find those pesky teens.

The media tries to hide the truth

about the race of these feral youth.

Face it. Urban America is unlivable. “Teens” like this are very common. They are amoral, rarely held accountable for their behavior, are politically protected, chronically subsidized and even celebrated by delusional people who believe that they personally are “safe”.

It’s Richmond, VA. No description is necessary.

Their ain’t no Amish in that area. My daughter went to VCU before we pulled her out of Richmond.

The Democrats ruined that city for generations.

It’s unofficial city slogan is “Bring out your dead”.

Virginia seems to have a lot of school shootings, k-12 and college.

Contrary to the nonsense that has for decades been spoon-fed to us by Leftist ideologues, there is only ONE way to curtail such crime. Perpetrators must be IMMEDIATELY tried, convicted, sentenced to death and hanged. There is simply no other way to effectively deal with such criminals.
