You were correct in I used to live by Ellington Field in Clearlake (Home of NASA) for a several years.

Relocated back to Central Texas (Round Rock) 3 years ago to be closer in taking care of my aged Mother & also to be closer to my children too. I'm not getting any Younger nor are they.

Our community literally borders the park & I walk those hike & bike trails every morning (except when traveling on business).

Old Settlers Park has always been a extremely safe park for everyone - no thuggery tolerated there.

The idiots who greenlighted that Juneteenth event were absolutely pants on head retarded - the outcome was way too easy to predict with ultimately tragic results.

We have seen the same thing happen again and again in Austin (think of the 6th Street shootings) when "Two groups of young Men" decide to whip out guns and open up in public ultimately killing or maiming innocent bystanders.

Update from Round Rock Police Department

Round Rock police are investigating a shooting incident Saturday night that left two people dead and multiple others injured during a Juneteenth celebration at 1371 Harrell Parkway, within Old Settlers Park in Round Rock.

At about 10:50 p.m., the shooting began during an altercation between two groups at the event, Round Rock Police Chief Allen Banks said. Two people died as a result of the incident, and multiple injured bystanders were transported to area hospitals, Chief Banks said during a news briefing early Sunday morning.

The victims were not part of the altercation, Chief Banks said. Additional information about the victims is not yet available.

No Suspects have been arrested & authorities are requesting the assistance of the community to identify those involved.

There are times I really hate being "right" when "I have a really bad feeling about this*.

Really sucks that certain "groups" just can't "get along" & end up as usual killing & injuring innocent bystanders.

Round Rock Police still have no arrests and only the weakest description one suspect as "a black male 18-20 wearing a hoodie".
