Gang Shooting on Magnolia—Police shut down the street

 Gangs are out of hibernation, or jail, not sure which. Shooting up one another on Magnolia just north of Sunnyside this afternoon.

Took aim and started shooting around noon today. One person down.

911 SPNA Call Group alerted police to gang member hiding out in laundry room of rental building by Malden and Sunnyside.
