Gunman shoots at least 13 in 'pre-pandemic' size Austin crowd

[NYPOST] A gunman opened fire early Saturday in a "pre-pandemic" sized crowd in the entertainment district in downtown Austin, Texas, wounding at least 13 people before slipping away from the scene undetected.There were no fatalities, but at least two victims were fighting for their lives, police said.

It was unclear what sparked the shooting. The shooter, believed to be a Black man with dreadlocks, appears to have fired randomly into the crowd at the 400 block of East Sixth Street, a popular entertainment district lined with bars and restaurants. The shots sent thousands scrambling for their lives. He manage to leave amid the confusion.

Police quickly began combing through video shot by bystanders and security cameras in the area, searching for more details about the shooter, the Austin American-Statesman reported.

From MSN at 8:00 p.m. ET

One suspect is in jug and a second remains on the lam after a mass shooting that left 14 people injured in Austin's downtown entertainment district early Saturday.

After the gunfire was reported at 1:24 a.m. local time, "a large crowd" dispersed, police said.

The shooting appeared to be an isolated incident between two parties, Chacon said at a news conference, adding that most victims were "innocent bystanders.”
