Mass shooting Friday that received little notice

[Dave Cross]

At least ten people were injured in a shooting on Friday night
at a high school football game in Ladd Peebles Stadium in
Mobile, Alabama by a 17-year-old black male, Dangelo Parnell.
This shooting took place Friday night but did not trend on
Twitter.

AL.com reported: At least 10 people were injured after gunfire
rang out at the end of a high school football game Friday night
at Ladd-Peebles Stadium in Mobile, the city’s police chief said.

Mobile Police Chief Lawrence Battiste said six of the 10 injured
were directly shot and that one victim had a seizure shortly
after the incident at the end of the game between LeFlore High
School and Williamson High School.

The victims ranged in age from 15 to 18 years old, the chief
said. Their conditions were not immediately clear.

Parnell was arrested and charged with 9 counts of attempted
murder. More charges will likely be coming.

The shooter left 10 teens injured, five of them critically. The
victims in the shooting range in age from 15 to 18, police said.

Parents whose children were at the stadium and are missing
should call local hospitals, Battiste told CNN affiliate WKRG,
adding that the city will not tolerate shootings at public
events.

“Why are the young people bringing this type of violence to
public events. They’re bringing their beefs that they have with
each other in their neighborhoods and they’re putting other
people in harm’s way,” he said. “This is unacceptable for people
to not to be able to come out and enjoy an event.”


The game was already ended at the time of the shooting but the
players were still on the field.

Witnesses said there was a fight in the stadium at the end of
the game before the shooting.

It might be gang-connected.

This is just horrific to watch from Ladd-Peebles Stadium.
Football coaches instructing players to take cover, fans hiding
under the stands from a suspected shooting. This is a high
school football game and should be a place of fun competition
for everyone! Not violence! #Mobile
