Cluster of Weekend Shootings Across U.S. Cities Leaves Dead and Wounded

Police are asking the public for surveillance footage and tips to identify suspects.

Overview

  • In Portland, a late‑night neighborhood shooting left one man dead and five others wounded after gunfire around 3:33 a.m., and detectives say the suspect or suspects fled before officers arrived.
  • Philadelphia police are probing multiple violent incidents over the same 24‑hour span that included a fatal shooting of a 42‑year‑old man, two other gunshot victims and one accidental discharge now under criminal investigation.
  • NYPD officers arrested three 16‑year‑olds in the Bronx after bullets struck an 87‑year‑old woman and an 18‑year‑old man; two teens face attempted murder charges while the third was charged with weapon possession.
  • Glendale police say an attempted vehicle theft at an apartment complex turned into an exchange of gunfire that left one person with non‑life‑threatening injuries and put four people, including two 17‑year‑olds, in custody.
  • Local authorities continue separate probes in Portsmouth and Dorchester where an early‑morning shopping‑center shooting killed one person and a late‑night Dorchester shooting injured two men, and investigators are canvassing for witnesses, video and forensic evidence.
