Authorities say the alleged gunman, a resident of Watervliet, had not been identified or apprehended as of press time, but he’s had frequent encounters with police. A second of the five total shooting victims was possibly another target, police say."
“This wasn’t an act that was directed at that block based on its location or by the frequency of population there,” Cooney said. “It was really just about this person or persons who were targets happened to be there at the time.”
He said it could have happened at any local business.
“We’re not going to look at Congress and Fourth as being a problem area per se,” Cooney said. “We’re going to look at wherever this guy and his associates go as more of concern to us.”

It happened in New York, a state where legal carry is a lot more difficult than it is in free states.
