MIAMI (AP) - Police in Miami say whoever shot and killed two
people and wounded seven in a residential area is still out there
and still very dangerous.
Police spokeswoman Kenia Alfonso says at least one of the
wounded is in critical condition at a hospital.
Authorities don't have anyone in custody and don't know what
prompted the shooting outside a store in Liberty City.
Fire and rescue officials say that when paramedics arrived at
the chaotic scene, many of those who had been shot were lying in
the street.
Six people were taken to trauma units and another person went to
a hospital with less severe injuries.
Liberty City's name comes from a housing project built in the
1930s for poor African-Americans and is known around Florida for
its crime and grinding poverty.
The city was the scene of riots in the 1980s over police
killings.
