Shooting on the Campus of Texas Southern University
July 23, 2009 - 12:11am

HOUSTON (AP) - A Texas Southern University spokeswoman says six
people were shot and wounded at a community rally on the Texas
Southern University campus in what police believe was a
gang-related drive-by shooting.

TSU spokeswoman Eva Pickens says one male student was among
those injured Wednesday night.

Pickens says witnesses told police people in a car drove by the
outdoor event where a popular Houston rapper was promoting a school
supply giveaway and opened fire.

Six people were shot. Pickens says they are being treated at
hospitals for serious, but non-life threatening injuries.

Campus police believe the incident was the result of rivalry
between two suburban gangs.

Regarding spending $$ on Hydrilla at Lake Tyler...would be much better if $$ were spent on the eyesores at/near the marina. Boat slips in serious disrepair and hazardous.. what appears to be a boat shop is just a collection of junk and waste.. We spent the 4th at the lake...hydrilla was not a problem but the old lumber, nails etc were a serious hazard..so whats up with that???
