According to investigators, the shootings unfolded over several days and targeted different locations throughout the city, sparking panic as gunfire erupted without warning. Detectives believe the attacks may be connected, though the exact motive has not yet been fully revealed.
Officials confirmed that several victims were injured during the shootings, with emergency crews rushing to scenes as chaos spread across the area. Community members described hearing rapid gunfire and seeing heavy police presence flood the streets as authorities worked to track down those responsible.
