Police at the scene of a shooting that left at least five injured during a Martin Luther King Jr. Day celebration in Miami. Three people were transported by emergency personnel to a hospital, and others brought themselves in for treatment after a shooting during a Miami Martin Luther King Jr. Day celebration, reports CBS Miami.
A law enforcement source told the station that at least five people were shot during the incident, which occurred at Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Park. The source said two of the wounded were in critical condition.
The station reports that one person is in custody, and a gun believed to be used in the shooting has been recovered. Celebrants had gathered at the park following the city’s annual parade to honor the civil rights icon. Police have not said if a motive in the incident is known.

Are you frickin kidding me? If you are unable to comprehend my point don’t bother responding.
It all started over an argument about who was better, The Mills Brothers or The Ink Spots.
Probably if he was white, the article would have highlighted that fact!
Here lies the real problem in Miami.
Caribbean Island Blacks and Pan-African Blacks do NOT mix well. Caribbeans are generally very peaceful and loving spirits, not angry or hostile or racist.
Somebody scheduled a combo event, big no-no.
“The Pan-African & Caribbean Family Festival was happening at the park Monday to commemorate Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.”
So 3 of the teens were juveniles...
Well, you clearly implied or suggested this is, "Christmas" season this was a terrorist attack. No?
If you have more information regarding this terror incident, please post it.
Wasn’t Jababah Lewis spoda be down there somewhere today ?
I know Nigerians who moved here and they cannot stand American blacks.
And whites are now 30-35% single parent families, if not greater.
..neither can American Blacks
Dissed. Or it was the wrong mix of people. See post #25.
Look... your glib comment about violence on MLK Day suggests an insensitivity about people dying during a CELEBRATION. In my view, it is the same as Christians or Jews dying during Christ’s birthday and is not really a matter to laugh about or take lightly. I feel bad about anybody dying during a celebration.
That is all and I am done connecting dots for you.
They were just following his teachings. /s
Only 5? Certainly they can do better than that.
MLK had his faults, like we all do; he had weaknesses as well as strengths - this quasi-republican has voted “R” since Reagan V. - 1.0
I will always agree with his statement (it is simply the Golden Rule re-packaged.) And look what the Dems did to desecrate his lofty message! GRRR!
Some “content of character”, eh?
They didn't need a motive ... they were celebrating!
Tell me, what does an MLK celebration have to do with Christmas?
And I had no idea this was a terrorists attack. Can I see your link? Thanks!
I posted this news earlier and the thread got pulled.
Can anyone tell me why?
