Students, parents speak out after barrage of bullets injures man near schools in Old Louisville

DAMAGE LEFT BEHIND BY THAT BARRAGE OF BULLETS. RANDALL. YEAH. RICK. TAKE A LOOK AT THE WINDSHIELD OF THIS CAR RIDDLED WITH BULLET HOLES. AND WE COUNTED AT LEAST 38. SOMEHOW, THOUGH, THE VICTIM GOT OUT ALIVE. BUT NEIGHBORS AND NEARBY STUDENTS WERE LEFT SHAKEN BY THIS VIOLENT EPISODE. THAT’S EXCESSIVE. THAT’S A LOT. THAT’S GRAHAM BOWEN’S REACTION TO A CAR BLASTED BY BULLETS JUST DOWN THE BLOCK FROM HIS HOME. BAYNE SAYS HE JUST MOVED TO OLD LOUISVILLE LAST WEEK AND DIDN’T EXPECT TO ENCOUNTER A SCENE LIKE THIS. I USED TO BE OVER NEAR TAYLOR BOULEVARD AREA, AND THIS WAS KIND OF A CONSTANT THING, SO I FIGURED IT WOULD BE A LITTLE WHILE BEFORE WE RAN INTO SOMETHING LIKE THIS, BUT IT’S IT’S KIND OF, YOU KNOW, THE VIOLENCE IS KIND OF RAMPED UP EVERYWHERE. UNFORTUNATELY. HARD TO BELIEVE WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE WINDSHIELD. BUT LOUISVILLE METRO POLICE SAY THE VICTIM WAS TAKEN TO U OF L HOSPITAL WITH NON-LIFE THREATENING INJURIES. THE SHOOTING HAPPENED NEAR THREE JCPS SCHOOLS. SECURITY WAS INCREASED AT THE YOUTH PERFORMING ARTS SCHOOL, MANUAL HIGH AND NO MIDDLE. I DIDN’T REALIZE HOW CLOSE IT WAS UNTIL I GOT HERE JUST NOW. LIKE, WOW, BRUCE YUKON SHOCKED TO SEE POLICE TAPE, EVIDENCE CONES AND BLUE LIGHTS JUST DOWN THE STREET FROM HIS DAUGHTER’S SCHOOL AND LIKE, WOW, THIS IS SCARY. LIKE IT JUST NEVER ENDS. WHEN IS IT GOING TO END? YOU KNOW, IT’S JUST NOT GOING TO END. YOU KNOW? I DON’T KNOW WHAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN TO CHANGE. LILEANA YUKON IS A SIXTH GRADER AT NO MIDDLE SCHOOL. IT WAS JUST LEVEL THREE, SO WE LIKE COULDN’T GO OUTSIDE OR ANYTHING. BUT YEAH, IT WASN’T THAT BAD. IT WAS JUST SOME KIDS WERE SCARED. POLICE HAVE NOTRILLIONELEASED A MOTIVE FOR THE SHOOTING, BUT BAYNE SAYS IT’S PRETTY OBVIOUS WHAT SPARKED THE GUNFIRE. THEY WERE GOING AFTER SOMEBODY. OBVIOUSLY, OTHER THAN THE PERSON IN THE CAR. NO BYSTANDERS WERE INJURED. SO FAR, NO ARREST HAS BE
