More shootings this weekend and still no details from the apd on whats going on. We’re used to this on Sycamore, but ever since the gang initiaton? Where the kids broke all the car windows the violence has spread to Antioch’s “good” neighborhood. Seems like everytime there is a shooting on sycamore, its followed by violence on the other side of hwy 4. Sure would be nice to get better reporting then empty promises for more details later or the limited info we’re getting fron the APD.
