City Shooting on Sarstoon
posted (August 9, 2017)

And while that was a murder, there was also a shooting on the city's Southside.  This one happened on Sarstoon Street just after midnight.  Police told us more:

Supt. Daniel Arzu - DOC, Southside Police
"Michael Aspinal, he was seen with gunshots to his arm and leg. Police are investigating at this point in time and we are hoping to gather additional information in relation to that incident as it is because the person refuses to speak to us at this point in time so we have to prove into this matter and see what we can get out of this latest incident. Now we are not in a position to say if he is the intended target, what we do know that he was riding his bicycle and he indicated that somebody came from behind fired shots from behind a house and caught him on his hand and feet."

So far, no one has been detained and, as you heard, police could not say who was the intended target.
