“Officers were monitoring concert traffic when numerous gunshots were heard,” Thomas says. “A 19-year-old man received suffered a gunshot wound to his right arm and an officer did apply a tourniquet.”
He was taken to the hospital with a non-life threatening injury. Officers found at least seven 9mm shell casings at the scene. Thomas says there were about 1,000 people coming out of PBA after the Sexxy Red concert when the shots were fired.
