The intersection of enrichment

One man is in hospital and two suspects are outstanding following a shooting in Hamilton’s downtown core Friday morning.

Hamilton police say the shooting happened in the area of MacNab Street South and King Street West.

There was another shooting in the same area a few month ago where a teenager was shot and killed in broad daylight. The police can massage the statistics for theft, robbery, fraud, and assaults but it's tough to ignore the increasing numbers of bullet wounds and dead bodies.
