I’m not coming back’: Mudbug Festival attendees share their terrifying experiences from the shooting
Alleged teen shooter at Mudbug Festival believed to be killed by officer; Two juveniles detained
quote:
Hinds County Sheriff Tyree Jones and witnesses said it’s all due to the violent actions of teenagers. Sheriff Jones said the person killed was between 15 and 17 years old and seen wearing a mask. Officers arrested two other juveniles between the ages of 15 and 16 who were inside a vehicle where shots were fired from. According to Sheriff Jones, the five people injured were hospitalized but are now in stable condition.
quote:
“I see one child with a gun in his pants, and he’s getting ready to pull it out. You look around, and you start to notice. I know I saw at least five to 10 guns, and you look up and see another set of guys with more guns. And they’re all pointing them at each other, and we’re kind of like in the middle,” one mother whose children were stuck on a ride during the shooting said.
quote:
“I kind of had a feeling something was gonna happen. And to be honest, I didn’t know when but I kind of expected it. Because it was kind of like a little, a couple of fights breaking out and things like that as well,” Greer explained.

Dozens of law enforcement officers from multiple agencies responded to the Mississippi Fairgrounds late Saturday night after shooters opened fire at the event near the Mississippi Trade Mart around 10 p.m.
quote:
At least six people were shot, including the deceased. According to Jones, the deceased shooter was between the ages of 15 and 17, and was wearing a mask. His identity has not been released.
quote:
At least one person was shooting from a vehicle, and two people were detained in that vehicle. The two detainees were 15 and 16 years old. No motive is currently known.
quote:
There was an exchange of gunfire between at least two to three individuals in and around [a] vehicle at this location. During the course of the exchange, at least one of these individuals fired multiple rounds, multiple shots, toward the midway area of the event that was in progress,” he said. “We do not believe there was anybody else injured along the midway during the course of this gunfire.” Rides were shut down shortly after the shooting occurred and patrons were forced to leave. Entry and exit points leading to the fairgrounds were eventually shut off to the public.

Big Sky country used to look brutally cold and boring to me sans skiing Sun Valley for a vacation. But, rural Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, and Colorado are looking so dreamy in 2022 America.

We need new gun laws making it illegal for kids to have handguns.

White supremacy is the greatest threat to our nation.

So he was simultaneously trying to save lives from covid and end lives with bullets?

This is what happens when you remove dads and personal responsibility from society.

Strange to hear that only the actual target of aggression was hit.
Typically, the target is completely missed and some innocent 7 year old takes lead to the dome.

So was it Neo Nazis vs. the Klan or something? You know, the number one threat and all.

Really nice local suburb near me has (EDIT - HAD) a "square" area with bars, restaurants, really cool shops along with parks all around, waterfalls, etc.
An idyllic scene for sure.
Less than 10 years ago, they had over 250 festivals per year. Three years ago, they cancelled the last and only festival held of 2019, the Fourth of July fireworks and Fair. No festivals are planned at all for the future there.
Why? Repeated "punching game" incidents, robberies, stabbings, shooting, and even multiple murders each and every year the final decade of the Square Festivals.
They cited "public safety no longer being able to be secured by the city leaders".
City was a conservative bastion for well over 100 years then became liberal run back around the turn of the century.
This type of violence is spreading to a neighborhood near you soon too.
