Two people died, including a mother of three, in separate shootings on the east side.

"We walked around here -- when we walked around here, we saw him in the street and they were covering him up," neighbor William Anthony Jr. said.
On the west side, a man was left in critical condition after he was shot on Meyers Road. He was found hiding in a bush, police said, and was rushed into surgery in critical condition.
“We heard gunshots -- five or six of ‘em,” said Alfred Atkins, who spoke of the Meyers shooting. “(I) wish I could’ve done more, but (you) can’t do much when there’s danger at your door.”
Another man was shot on the west side when he was caught in crossfire between two people shooting at each other at Dane's Social Club, police said. He is excepted to survive.
