Didn't get an alert for a shooting at that location? That's because the alert went out for Raum Street, which intersects with West Virginia Avenue in the northwestern corner of the Trinidad neighborhood.

"multiple gunshot wounds"
Oops. Someone has an enemy.
Was this Trinidad or Brentwood Park?
Definitely Trinidad. I think more on Raum than West Virginia.
