Four people were injured when multiple suspects opened fire on numerous locations in Austin, Texas, on Saturday and Sunday.
KVUE reported that police have two suspects in custody and are searching for a third. KUT noted that a shelter-in-place for South Austin was lifted after the two were apprehended.
Police believe “at least ten shootings happened late Saturday and into Sunday.”
Investigators believe the shooters allegedly “[used] multiple vehicles, including a black or dark blue Hyundai Sonata, a gold Hyundai sedan and a silver Mazda four-door.”
Cars were reportedly being stolen during the shootings, as well. Austin Police Chief Lisa Davis said, “I want to remind people not to leave your cars unlocked…What we are seeing is these cars are being stolen. Do not leave your keys or key fobs in the vehicle.”
KXAN said at least two of the shootings were directed toward Austin fire stations.
