Eleven people were gunned down during a Saturday shooting near a college stadium in Tallahassee, Florida — and the suspect or suspects are still at large, according to police.
Tallahassee Police Chief Lawrence Revell said at a press conference after the bloodshed that 6 of the shooting victims were juveniles, including an 11-year-old.
Revell also said the 5 other shooting victims were adults, and a 12th victim — a grandmother — was injured while fleeing the chaotic scene but was not shot.
Revell said 1 victim was in critical condition while 3 others were in serious condition, and the rest were in stable condition.
According to Revell … the bullets started flying Saturday night after a college football game between Arkansas–Pine Bluff Golden Lions and the Florida A&M Rattlers at the latter’s Bragg Memorial Stadium. Revell confirmed that at least 1 victim was a Florida A&M student.
The police chief said there was a fight between 2 or 3 people that likely sparked the shooting near A&M’s stadium … but it was unclear if the football game was also a motivating factor.
Detectives from the Tallahassee PD’s Violent Crimes Unit are now investigating and trying to trying to track down those responsible for the shooting.
By the way … the Arkansas–Pine Bluff Golden Lions beat the Florida A&M Rattlers 31-28.
