Sixteen Hurt In
Shooting At Music Video Filming
For this week’s weekly news, I have
chosen a story from the Sky News, which has been written by the Sky News US
Team.
The story describes a mass shooting that
took place at a playground in New Orleans leaving at least sixteen people to
have to be taken to hospital after.
It is understood that as many as 500
people were at the "Bunny Friend" park at the time of the attack, as
a music video was being filmed.
Tyler Gamble, a police spokesman,
said officers had been on their way to the playground to break up a large crowd
when gunfire erupted - reportedly between two groups who had been fighting.
The story straight away caught my
attention as it was posted on the main page of the news website, meaning that it
is important and in some way has an effect on everyone. The story describes how
yet another incident of this sort took place following the attacks in the
previous weeks and reinforces the idea of how dangerous the world is staring to
be. However, what made me question is the idea of the story not being talked
about on platforms such as the social media. Shootings took place, people got
injured so it is not significant to talk about and spread awareness?
