US: Shooting in Fort Worth leaves three people dead
At least three people died and eight others were wounded as a gunfight erupted in the US city of Fort Worth on Monday, media reports said.
Ten of the victims are adults and one a minor, according to a news release from the Fort Worth Police Department’s homicide unit, reports CNN.
After the shootout, on the same street, people participated in the Fourth of July parade.
The parade-goers waved at children on colorful floats and riders on horseback.
“We had a shooting. It appears that we had multiple victims that were shot. Probably three of them were transported to Harris Southwest,” police Capt. Shawn Murray told CNN during a news conference. “Five more victims were transported to John Peter Smith.”
