A little after 10 pm tonight, shooting broke out from a group of young men hanging out the Overlook condominiums at the end of South Laurel Street. It is unclear what exactly lead to the gunfire, but around 10 to 12 shots were fired. Thankfully, there are no reports of injuries, but at least one household reported bullets entering. The young men scattered and drove off in different vehicles.
After neighbors called 911, police arrived and gathered evidence.

From a Holly Street neighbor:
After contacting the police about so many vehicles running the stop sign at Oregon Hill Parkway and Pine St, they sent out an engineer to look at it. They got back to me today with a summary:
The RPD traffic division has contacted the Department of Public Works regarding the traffic issues you brought to our attention. Together, they have devised the following plan of action:
– Oregon Hill Pkwy and Pine St
o DPW plans to place a stop bar and improve the placement of the stop sign.
– Holly and Pine
o DPW will place a stop ahead sign and replace the stop sign for the eastbound movement
