    Another day, another senseless shooting and still no answers from the APD. This latest incident occurred after two cars engaged in a rolling gun battle over the weekend. Why have there been no arrests or updates? Can you really get away with shooting someone in broad daylight as long as it happens in Antioch. I’d like to know if these shooting are related and if so what is the connection? We shouldn’t have to guess whether or not its safe to walk outside. Citizens deserve information, not vauge statements or promises of coffee with the cops.
