“The three were walking on Prospect Street when they were confronted by a white male with a handgun,” Murad [BPD chief] wrote. “Without speaking, he discharged at least four rounds from the pistol and is believed to have fled on foot. All three victims were struck, two in their torsos and one in the lower extremities.”
Murad noted in the press release that all three victims are 20-year-old men of Palestinian descent.
“Two are US citizens and one is a legal resident. Two were wearing keffiyehs at the time of the assault,” Murad wrote, in reference to the traditional Palestinian scarf.
Yup. I hope the victims can provide more info. The article mentions two have stabilized, so hopefully they can provide good information to finish the investigation quickly.
