1 dead and 7 wounded related to a function in the hotel involving a group, age 18-22.  Still hard to find information about what the event was.  Maybe 3rdgen has the scoop?


One man was killed and seven other people were wounded in a shooting inside a downtown Phoenix hotel after an argument early Sunday, police said.

Officers responded to a call about a shooting at the Hyatt Regency Phoenix hotel around 12:30 a.m.
Police said a group of people between the ages of 18 and 22 who all were attending a function inside the hotel had an argument that escalated into shots being fired.

“We do believe this is an isolated incident and not a random act,” police spokeswoman Sgt. Maggie Cox said, adding that detectives were still interviewing witnesses.

“There was definitely more than one shooter,” she said. “After the argument, different people within that group began shooting at each other.”

It was unclear what kind of event was being held at the upscale hotel located near the cityâ€s convention center and close to the Arizona Diamondbacks†ballpark and Phoenix Suns†basketball arena.

A call to the hotel Sunday seeking comment on the shooting and the event being held wasnâ€t immediately returned.
Cox said arriving officers evacuated the hotel staff from the building before doing a search to make sure there wasnâ€t an active shooter.

They located a man who was declared dead at the scene and then helped the wounded — six men and one woman — get treatment before they were taken to hospitals.

They had “various injuries … gunshot wound injuries” not believed to be life threatening, Cox said.
The names of the dead man and the seven wounded werenâ€t immediately released.
Police were processing evidence and reviewing surveillance video to determine the specific details to the shooting, according to Cox.

Nope, first Iâ€ve seen of it. 
Old folks might remember a TV movie from 1978 where the Phoenix Hyatt was hit by a meteor.

Now High I am not being smart here but are you assuming or do you have knowledge if the perps are african american or illegals??

I mean you are accused here of only posting stories negative to african americans so I am just trying to find out if you have knowledge of the races or you are disproving the assumptions of you by others..

I spent a couple of minutes trying to get more pertinent details about it and could not find them.  The stories were pretty much the same.  I just thought it was strange for Phoenix since it's only about 8% black but it was at a hotel and it is near the NBA arena I think.  It does sound like black activity to be honest but I really can't say for sure.

OK so you just posted a tragic event without knowing the races.  

Did you see the shootings in Times Square?  I heard about it but do not not the details

That was a black dude. They donâ€t seem to be able to figure out itâ€s all on hi def cameras now. Phoenix is 7% black and I think the metro as a whole is less. Large Hispanic population.

Thank you .  I had no idea.  I am alos trying to help out High!

He has been accused of only hyping anti black articles but he did not post anything about the NYC shootings which was allegedly committed by an AA fella and he posted a story about a shooting in Phoenix w/o knowing the races.

I could not post all of the blacks ones even if I tried.  There are way too many.

Heâ€s guessing. The odds are in his favor even at7% of the population. If you had to bet on things like this youâ€d go black, Hispanic, white, Asian based on odds. Just the way it is. Black v. Hispanic in Phoenix is a tough call though. Mexican murder rates are off the charts.

Anyhow I was just curious about why this story was posted here and the NYC one was not.

I took it he posted it cuz a few of us live in the Phoenix area.

Yes, but I did not want to hurt your feelings....

Guns and gangs I at least get.  Insane as it is there are turf wars at play, etc...   But guns over dumb beefs/arguments?  If you're running that hot just fight it out.  

I mean seriously, you're gonna kill someone over some dis at a bar/night club?  What are you effffing nuts (yeah that's obviously rhetorical)?
