I’m sipping my coffee and reading about a shooting near a college stadium in Tallahassee, Florida, where 11 people were left with gunshot wounds on Saturday night. Officials said the shooting occurred near Florida A&M’s Bragg Memorial Stadium, and among the victims were six juveniles, including an 11-year-old. I’m thinking, what’s going on here? Folks, this is just tragic. Tallahassee Police Chief Lawrence Revell told reporters that a victim’s grandmother was also injured while fleeing the scene. I mean, can you imagine being in that situation?
As I continue reading, I see that one of those injured is currently in critical condition, while three sustained serious injuries. Eight are in stable condition, which is a blessing. One victim was a student at Florida A&M, Revell said. I’m wondering what could have led to this altercation. The police chief said the shooting likely stemmed from an altercation between two to three individuals, and the department’s Violent Crimes Unit would be leading the ongoing investigation.
The investigation is ongoing, and detectives are working to determine exactly what happened and identify those responsible. Revell said, “We’re still working the scene. Our detectives, our sergeants, our forensic personnel are all on scene and processing this as we go, taking in as much information as they can.” I’m thinking, this is a tough job, and I hope they get to the bottom of it. Revell also said, “As our detectives work to determine exactly what happened and identify those responsible, we remain committed to getting answers for these families.” That’s reassuring to hear.
The shooting took place just hours after a homecoming football game at the stadium, where Arkansas-Pine Bluff Golden Lions beat Florida A&M Rattlers 31-28. I’m not sure if the shooting was connected to the game, but it’s definitely a coincidence. Florida A&M released a statement saying, “The University is aware of an incident that occurred near campus on Perry Street on the evening of October 24. The Tallahassee Police Department is on the scene and actively investigating the situation.” They also added, “Our hearts go out to the victims and all those affected by this tragic incident. While the campus remains safe, individuals are encouraged to avoid the area to allow law enforcement to conduct its investigation.”
I’m seeing that CNN has reached out to the Tallahassee Fire Department, the Mayor’s Office, and the Leon County Sheriff’s Office for further information. This is a developing story, and I’m sure we’ll hear more about it soon. Somewhere in Atlanta, a producer thought this sounded terrifying, and now it’s all over the news. I’m just hoping for the best for the victims and their families.
In conclusion, this shooting near the college stadium in Tallahassee, Florida, is a tragic incident that has left many people injured and affected. I’m glad to see that the investigation is ongoing, and I hope the authorities can get to the bottom of it soon. As I finish my coffee, I’m thinking, what a way to start the week, right? 🙄 It’s just another day in the news, folks, and I’m just trying to stay informed and hope for the best.
