Not every kid is meant to go to university or college. So, it makes sense to teach them entrepreneurial skills early
"It sounded like somebody was trying to go to war," neighborhood resident Asa Adams told Spectrum News.
A man and woman, estimated to be in their late teens or early 20s, were killed, Simmons said. Their names weren't immediately released. The 14 wounded by gunfire were not believed to have life-threatening injuries. They were all between the ages of 17 and 23, police tweeted Saturday morning.
The acting chief said no suspects were in custody.
The shooting comes as the city in Western New York has been rocked by protests over Prude's death, caused when Rochester police officers put a hood over his head to stop him from spitting, then pushed his face into the pavement and held him down until he stopped breathing. The details of Prude's death only emerged this month, leading to allegations of a coverup and calls for the arrests of the officers involved.
On Monday, the city's mayor fired Police Chief La'Ron Singletary, who she said initially misled her about the circumstances of the March death. Other senior police officials announced they would retire or leave top command positions.
The acting police chief, Simmons, expressed frustration that someone had held a large, late-night party amid that tumult, apparently in defiance of a state ban on large gatherings because of the coronavirus pandemic.
"This is yet another tragedy where individuals are having these illegal, unsanctioned house parties taking place in these properties, which - number one - is not safe because of COVID, because of the conditions," Simmons said. "And then you add in alcohol and violence and it just becomes a recipe for disaster."
Officers responding to calls of shots fired found "approximately 100 people" running from the scene, Simmons said. Before the call, police were not aware of the party and had received no complaints about noise, he said.
The wounded were being treated at local hospitals. Two more people were hurt while fleeing, the Major Crimes Unit said in a tweet. Despite the lack of arrests, Simmons said there was no reason to believe the neighborhood was unsafe.
