Sounds like an isolated incident. One wounded with non-life threatening injuries.

 

[BossDawg78]

Buncha damn codeine-drunk thugs....

The square on Friday and Saturday nights is a damned dangerous place. It's a lot different now than when it first came to life in the late 80's and 90's. Thousands of people just milling around, looking for trouble with no intention of going in a restaurant or bar.

There is a reason police officers are on horseback.... and it isn't because it looks quaint.

I wouldn't want my kids anywhere near it.

 

[IPMdawg]

There’s a video circulating of it that I’ve seen on someone’s phone. They wouldn’t share it with me. Some kind of “jersey night” hip hop party at the lyric. Big fight broke out and guy shot someone

 

[bulldognation]

Machine gun Kelly back in town?

 

[JungRebel]

Someone fired a 'warning shot' and it ricocheted and hit someone who had nothing to do with it according to what I heard. Incredibly stupid and i hope they throw the whole book at the person who fired the shot.

Future doctor or lawyer for certain

Starkville is a long way from being crime free.... we have a lot of things we can throw rocks at Ole Miss....but this isn't one of them.

 

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Starkville was having these issues with the District. It took the student a few years ago getting killed before they did anything about it.

 

[o_dawgnabit]

Agreed. We use to have this problem at the district. But ever since that student was killed back in 2016, it has been cleaned up

 

[WrapItDog]

Some kind of “jersey night” hip hop party at the lyric.

Shots fired at "Shoot your Shot" party

 

[Shmuley]

Lead showers.

 

[preacher_dawg]

Maybe, but at least we don't claim Starkville as the Mecca of all human existence.

 

[JoMo MoJo]

Who were they “warning”?

 

[dawgdr]

Land Shark is the perfect mascot because appoarently they just drive around the square hoping to not take the drunk girl home. The girl that ended up in Panola county few months back is lucky to be alive.

 

[Dawgcap]

Maybe, but at least we don't claim Starkville as the Mecca of all human existence.

In a way you just did.

 

[RocketDawg]

Who goes around firing "warning shots"? This isn't the old west.

 

[ChinaDogSunflower]

Is Chad Kelly back in town for something???

 

[bruiser.sixpack]

Agreed. We use to have this problem at the district. But ever since that student was killed back in 2016, it has been cleaned up

Not sure it is “cleaned up.” When I have been through the District there are still way way too many people clustered and milling around on the streets. In fact, they kind of stand really close to the streets very nearly in traffic lanes. It will only take one incident to stir trouble. Everybody needs to be inside an establishment OR....the streets need to be blocked off completely, which would be better.

Or just let natural selection do its thing...

 

[HammerOfTheDogs]

F'n thugs.

They said "one shot" not a whole round.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Updated WTVA story

says one shot was fired in the air.

Then somebody got cut by a broken glass, while fleeing the scene.

Says police are seeking info.
