Two guys shot in gunfight at site of Cleveland event decrying road violence

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Two men were hospi air max 95.alized after a Tuesday day gunfight footsteps from where community leaders were nike air max cheap.et to hold an event designed to bring attention to the plight of street violence. Both pulled out a pistol and fired multiple shots at each other. One guy was hit three times in the chest, and the other o nike air max 90 red.ce in the torso. Both collapsed, and were taken to MetroHealth Medical Center Tuesday. Their state wasn't understood. About an hour or so after the shooting, yellow evidence markers flagged two bottles of raspberry iced tea, a black Samsung cell phone that rang always as it lay face down in the dirt, and an unlaced Nike Jordan tennis shoe lying next to the park bench. Individuals inside the park, however, barely noticed as red and blue police lights flickered in the background. Youth football and cheer leading practices filled the air with whistles and chants, and bass bellowed out from speakers playing a heavy rotation of classic Michael Jackson songs at the Mayor's Night Out Against Crime. Fifth District Commander Dennis Hill took the mic, commending everyone who came out despite the "tragic, senseless act." "We must show as a community we'll not stand this type of stuff," said Hill, who declined further comment. For Ward 8 City Councilman Mike Polensek, the shooting underscored the frustrating anxiety between area coherence and urban offense in a city attempting to claw its way past a violent name. "This is just pure stupidity," Polensek said. "And in this area, it is not acceptable." Polensek said no. "When you start cancelling the good events due to mindless stupidity, you become another casualty," he said.
