3 shot, wounded in Palmdale

by •

PALMDALE – Three men were shot Monday at a Palmdale park, according to reports from the scene.

Sheriff’s officials confirmed they were investigating a shooting call that was reported around 7:40 p.m. Monday, March 27, at Manzanita Heights Park, located in the 400 block of Mesa Verde Street but declined to share any details other than they received another call from a hospital where some potential victims from the shooting were.

A photographer at the scene said the three men were barbecuing when the shots rang out and that the men self-transported to the hospital.

All were expected to survive their injuries.

  1. I wish all these gang bangers would be on the front lines of a war… let them shoot and be shot, away from good citizens that like to enjoy life without a chance of being riddled with bullets.

    • Great plan…then when they come back as veterans and get shoved right back into the oppressed underclass that has been created for them they will be trained soldiers and really ready for a class war.

      Oh.

      Wait.

      Maybe not such a great plan. Maybe breaking the boundaries that maintain a permanent underclass would be a better idea.

  2. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it then it probably a duck.
    Looking like a Gangster shooting at the park, move along nothing to see here. Round 2 coming soon, payback time, service with a grin ;)

    • I wish they’d all just shoot and kill each other and be done with it, so the good people who live here can have our valley back !

      • Since they seem inclined to shoot each other and not these hypothetical “good people,” how exactly are they keeping the “good people” from having “their” valley?

        • …Because they make life miserable for the people who live here and want to live in a crime-fee community. We have jobs, pay our taxes and want to enjoy what the city has to offer without always looking over our shoulder.

          Things like this are the reason that Thursday Nights on the Square in Old Town Palmdale were cancelled. Too many unsupervised kids and gang members showing up and ruining things, stealing and trying to intimidate people.

          They make the rest of us feel unsafe and afraid to even go out and enjoy our nice parks and shopping areas.

        • Idk jack wagon, maybe Because good people are afraid to take their kids to the park because these thugs don’t care about the wellbeing of anyone including themselves. You’re brain dead sir, I see you lurk this website like it’s your civil duty and it’s quite comical. Grow up.
