At least one person was killed and four others wounded in a shooting at a homeless encampment in Las Vegas on Friday, police said.
The incident occurred in the area of Charleston Boulevard and U.S. 95 around 5:30 p.m. local time. Officers responded to a homeless encampment, where witnesses directed them to multiple victims, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Jason Johansson said at a press briefing Friday night.
I think the gun violence either way is beyond disgusting. This was an avoidable attack that people in the comments are trying to justify based on the victim and / or attackers social economic position.
I don’t think anyone is trying to justify it, simply frame it in proportion to what it was.
