[Breaking news update at 2:32 p.m. ET] Fifteen teenagers were treated for gunshot wounds at Dadeville’s Lake Martin Community Hospital in Alabama after a shooting at a Sweet 16 party Saturday night, hospital spokesperson Heidi Smith told CNN. Four others were killed in the mass shooting, authorities said. Of the 15 teens wounded and hospitalized, six have been treated and released. The remaining nine wounded teenagers have been transferred to other medical facilities, Smith said.
That’s why this is so difficult it’s because this, it’s affecting everybody in the community.” Hayes said students told him the shooting happened at a “Sweet 16” birthday party. “I knew these kids personally. Most people did,” the pastor said. Among those gathered at the hospital, “There was a lot of sadness, a lot of concern on faces,” Hayes said. “I think at this point it’s shock,” he said. “I think probably the anger will come. I think it’s a matter of time to see how people respond to this.
When will our street be safe...Gun control.
Republican state.
Happens literally everyday in Chicago, LA and New York. You never cover those. Your racism is showing!
Hmmmm and even cnn isn't saying race or gender of victims or shooter. I bet if he was a white Christian, we'd know his whole life story by now
Are we really supposed to be surprised?
Black on black as usual, we need to educate our generation.
So So Sad....
This democrat on democrat violence needs to end! WakandaForever
CNN Criminal News Network... Refused to say the guns were Illegal guns..
Nobody dead? Was the firing a sniper? Alabama
This wasn't a mass shooting this was young black kids doing what they do every day. When thugs cry..

CONTINUE TO SEND BILLIONS OF DOLLAR TO UKRAINE AND THE GUNSHOTS WILL STOP.
I'll never understand why people do this to other people, nor why people oppose stricter gun laws. It could also be their children who hit something like that! You don't bring children into the world, raise them painstakingly with a lot of effort to expose them to such risks!!!😡
Yanks are at it again
Another day another shooting.
Phone control
1st Identify Problem - FAILED-don't engage Extremist-giving them an OK. FAILED-to stop 'he said' she said stuff. See; Police Report*Crime Across America because of Rumors & Gossip* Our Inexperienced Congress Democrats superficial, naughty! Its influence conspire. See*NY Gran Jur*
....in Alabama, da ist der Colt im Pyjama....German song of the 1960s.
and yet still nothing can be done! All talk and no action!
More minority shooting , black on black violence
Where are the parents?
It’s the culture
Please tell us who did the shooting, usual suspects? I’m willing to bet so since the shooter isn’t being paraded in the news
What a suspicious shooting. 🤔 No description of the perpetrators , no warning before the Shooting, unbelievable.
I’m at a loss for words as to why this is not breaking news in Alabama. Too little info on the suspect. State residents are on social media naming a suspect as a disgruntled classmate; it seems to be racially motivated. I know we shouldn’t trust that, But this is too hush-hush.
the shooter in these advanced need the death penalty
All these hours later, and still no details about the shooter or motive? Hmmmm……
Nothing will happen, just like nothing happened after Louisville, nothing happened after Uvalde, nothing after (name your shooting), and we’ll all just hope we or our loved ones will not be in the next one. Just like every few weeks it rains every few weeks this happens again.
And nobody will address the mental health crisis in America!!!!!
Sounds like a relatively peaceful day in Chicago.
Great. U have 16 year olds packing heat. Another typical day in America.
CHICAGO SHOOTINGS: 29 SHOT, 6 FATALLY, IN WEEKEND VIOLENCE, POLICE SAY Chicago police said several teens have been shot. Did the president come out and blame Republicans and the NRA. More killed and more shot. Will the VP be heading to Chicago
Liberals commit an overwhelming majority of mass shootings. It's a culture problem.
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. -Ephesians 6:12
4 dead, 28 injured (some critical)
This country is the wild Wild West.
Democrats need to stop mass murdering people.
It mostly happens when the summer is so close😳
Overpopulation
And why wouldn’t you bring a AK to a birthday party in the US. Seems normal .
Alabama was french territory-make macron responsible
Black on black violence. Nothing to see here.
Watch out the funerals might get shot too.
Thoughts and prayers to those affected by this now common occurence
A gun fight breaking out at a birthday party. Small town, around 3,000. 45% black. Let's talk facts. They are most likely violent Democrats.
MAD WORLD stop turning I want to get off.
A typical normal day in America unfortunately. Wonder how many have to die for people to realize they have to do something.
It’s not guns it’s black culture. This is one of the kids killed. Oh but it’s the guns. Also last night in chicago. Oh but WhiteSupremacy is the biggest threat huh.
WHAT?! A mass shooting in the US? No waaaaaay
That's OK. No worries... Guns don't kill people, PEOPLE kill people (say morons all over the USA). WHEN THE F*** ARE YOU GOING TP GET RID OF THE SECOND AMENDMENT
Is the shooter dead? On the run? Are they a woman? Man? Non-binary? Race? Was this terrorism? We need answers
It's a ducking national emergency POTUS VP GunControlNow WhenIsEnoughEnough 🤬 It's time to act out of box. The republicans will NEVER do ANYTHING to help the situation. TAKE CHARGE! Let the people decide What do you say America?Strict Gunn Control NOW yes or no?
Dear America Guns are the problem. Its not actually difficult to understand now is it?
This is why they need to ban guns order a door to door confiscation. Whoever refuses will face charges.
The well-regulated militia strikes again.
The mass shooting of the day in the 'land of the gun'.
Good think they were not at drag show book reading. Thank God it was only another mass shooting, whew
We need common sense gang laws. For the children.
😞☹️😟
Gun control , control guns
Republicans could care less about it, they care more about their NRA donations
Americans sure love killing each other. More than a daily occurrence now. Not like that anywhere else in the world. Republicans and their guns will kill you all.
Gang / street violence. I think we should ban gangs. They account for 97.8% of all mass situations I bet.
We have a mental issue in this country. Open up mental health facilities and hospitals.
CNN reports nothing about the kiddy riots in Chicago last night? Embarrassing!
When the reporting of a shooting is determined on politics, you know our society has failed.
An CNN along all other media outlets celebrate the shootings because it generates viewership and revenue. Copy cat mass murders are caused by media glamorization of gun violence. Exactly the same for liberal Hollywood movie productions and gaming companies. Cause and effect
Meh, black gang beef, nothing to see here, just more ‘culturally appropriate responses to conflict’ over the color of a hoody. Definitely doesn’t fit into the cnn narrative.
Welcome to 🇺🇸
Seriously! America do something about guns! Republicans USA
