Mass shooting in backyard kills 4, injures 6; gunman at large


MSM keeping the "Mass Shooting" drum beat...

Four people were killed and six others were injured when a gunman burst into a Fresno backyard and sprayed bullets toward a family who gathered to watch football Sunday night, authorities said.

The gunman, who is at large, sneaked into the backyard of the home and opened fire just before 8 p.m. local time, according to Fresno, California, police.

Three people were found dead in the home's backyard while a fourth died at the hospital.

The shooter was able to escape and police do not know his or her identity, authorities said. It is possible the shooter was known to the victims.

About 10 people were in the yard where the shooter fired, according to ABC Fresno station KFSN.

The suspect never entered the home, according to police, where about 35 people were gathered for the viewing party.

Children were at the home but none of them were hurt, authorities said.

The victims were between the ages of 25 and 30, police said.

Two victims are in critical condition and three are in critical but stable condition, hospital officials told KFSN.

Raiders fans?

I read shooters, and the victims were all Asian men under 30.

Sounds like a gang incident.

"Sneaked into" rather than "Snuck into"???

Who the fuck do they employ as "Journalists", 4th graders?

I'll take gang/drug related shooting for $1000.00 Alex.

Okay, we need you now. Pretty sure that last article Gman posted was edited by auto correct on a cell phone.

Without getting more info it smells like a gang incident, but they are pushing mass shooting hard

I think sneaked is grammatically correct.

Which part of this doesn't qualify as a mass shooting?

FBI definition, iirc, is 3 or more dead, not including the shooter.

That said, I think there's a pretty obvious difference between a shooting with multiple victims that is an outgrowth of general criminal douchebaggery (e.g. gang members shooting each other) vs. the traditional perception that a mass shooting generally has a more random source, and is aimed at victims that are chosen for reasons other than those related to a criminal enterprise.

Haha! That's what you think!

Any gun that has more than one round fired for any purpose is a mass shooting and is causing every problem in the world. Duh.

You need to read Vox and Mother Jones for the real scoop.

It wasn't done in church.
