AND NOW WE KNOW WHY. NOW WE JUST TALKED TO OFFICER TRUMAN FITZGERALD, WHO TELLS US THAT THERE ARE AT LEAST FIVE SCENES HERE IN THIS AREA THAT WE KNOW THAT THERE WERE MULTIPLE SCENES WHERE SHOTS WERE FIRED. SO I’M GOING TO STEP OUT THE WAY. SO WE CAN GIVE YOU JUST A LOOK AT HOW BIG AND HOW SCARY THIS SHOOTING MUST HAVE BEEN FOR THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN THIS AREA. NOW, IF YOU ZOOM IN OVER HERE, YOU CAN SEE THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL SHELL CASING MARKERS OVER HERE. NOW, IN THOSE FIVE SCENES, THERE WERE NINE ROUNDS, 16 ROUNDS, THREE ROUNDS, FOUR ROUNDS, 20 ROUNDS, SEVEN ROUNDS, AND MAKING FOR A TOTAL OF 70 ROUNDS FIRED HERE IN THIS GATE CITY AREA. NOW AGAIN, WE KNOW THAT THERE WAS AN EIGHT YEAR OLD GIRL WHO WAS SHOT. SHE WAS TAKEN TO FIRE STATION 11 BY A PRIVATE CAR AND THEN TAKEN TO CHILDREN’S OF ALABAMA, WHERE SHE WENT IN SURGERY. AND THEY BELIEVE THAT SHE WILL BE OKAY. BUT WE’RE TOLD THAT THAT SHE WAS SHOT AT LEAST TWICE AND MAYBE A THIRD TIME. BUT AGAIN, SHE IS EXPECTED TO BE OKAY. NOW, THE POLICE OFFICERS HERE TELL US THAT THERE WAS A GATHERING HERE IN THE MARCH VILLAGE, ABOUT 60 TO 70 PEOPLE WHO WERE GATHERED. AND THEN THERE WAS A SHOOTOUT THAT OCCURRED. NOW THERE ARE MULTIPLE OFFICERS HERE FROM MULTIPLE PRECINCTS HELPING OUT WITH THIS INVESTIGATION. AND WE KNOW THAT THE CHILD AND ANOTHER PERSON WHO WAS INJURED, NOT FROM GUNFIRE, BUT TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM THE SCENE, WERE INJURED HERE AND THEY WERE NOT THE TARGET. NOW, WE KNOW THAT THE GIRL WAS ALSO IN THE CAR WHEN SHE WAS IN A CAR. WHEN SHE WAS SHOT. AND SO JUST A VERY SCARY SITUATION FOR ANYBODY WHO WAS OUT HERE.
