Shooting Victims Remain Hospitalized
Both shooting victims from yesterday [May 23] remain hospitalized, and are both listed as stable this evening.
The Police said that at around 12:30pm yesterday, two men wearing dark clothing and riding on a dark motorcycle drove from the direction of Cedar Park onto Frog Lane, where they drove behind the two victims who were also traveling on a motorcycle.
Both motorcycles traveled west along Palmetto Road when shots were fired at the victims, after which the suspects sped away on to Border Lane North towards Friswells Road.
The victims, a 48 year old man and a 39 year old man, were taken to King Edward VII Memorial Hospital for treatment.
Police investigators are making an appeal to any persons who were in the areas of Old Military Road, Frog Lane, Palmetto Road or Roberts Avenue at around 12.30pm and saw the pursuit, suspects or suspects’ vehicle to immediately contact police.
Alternatively any persons who have any information about this shooting incident, whether they believe it to be significant or not, are asked to contact Police on 295-0011 or the confidential Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-8477.
COWARDS! I BET THEY WOULD GIRL UP IF CONFRONTED ALONE WITH ONLY THEIR FISTS TO DEFEND THEMSELVES!
According to a news bulletin yesterday, the victims were “known to police”. One would be reasonable in thinking that the victims may have some idea who or why they may have been targeted.
Suggest refusal of medical treatment (beyond keeping them alive) until they talk.
Suggest you shake the rocks out of your head!! The police have ways to make people talk!! Refusal of treatment will just cause more problems!
If the police had ways of making people talk, then why are there still so many shootings? Why are they still unable to find the one gun that these guys seem to be sharing? Why does it take so long for them to find and catch suspects?
I agree Talk @ me Str8….!!!
my bad correction “Talk 2 Me Str8″
These shooters are some depressed souls….we should be encouraging these idiots to go M.A.W.I. and pic up their meds….
US Marshalls would have found all these guns by now…send them Bermy a.s.a.p.!!
Damn, the BPS can’t even find decent informers to help them.
This is good. Sounds like we are finally getting beyond the ridiculous ‘case of mistaken identity’ thing. The victims knew they were being targeted.
Let um all go out long island, give um guns, last man standin wins and goes jail. done deal!
