Just another day in the Park.
It sounded like it was an AK47 was going off then a few minutes later you heard a regular gun shoot about 4-5 shots. I figured it was around this area AGAIN!! The cops came flying down the road to the areas around pegg road but never heard any rescue vehicles but I guess none came since he went to them at the station. It just makes me wonder what happened to make someone go shooting up an area with an AK smh.
It’s the park, drug deal gone bad
