MASON CITY – A shooting this morning in Mason City left one hurt and police digging for evidence.
This morning, at 12:49 am, a person at 814 N Federal Avenue (the “Reynolds Apartments”) called police to request an ambulance for an injured subject there who looked to be in pain. The caller was uncooperative and would not disclose further information to Dispatch. Mason City Fire Department staff responded to the vague report. Fire Department employees began treating the 24 year old person and realized he had a fresh non-life-threatening gunshot wound. MCFD employees immediately notified police who then responded.
Mason City Police interviewed the victim and occupants of one of the apts inside 814 N Federal Ave. No one was very cooperative, especially when asked for a specific location where the shooting occurred or why it occurred. The victim does not live at 814 N Federal and has no permanent address. The shooting is under investigation.
Police are seeking assistance from the public in this incident says, “Due to lack of cooperation, we are asking residents and businesses within a 1 block radius of 9th and N Federal Ave to review surveillance camera footage from approx 12:30 – 12:50 am this morning. We are looking for any footage that may show 2 or more pedestrians arguing over a backpack before the shooting occurred in this general area.”
It’s been over ten years ago that tragedy struck Mason City due to gun violence. Right across the street from this shooting at the Casey’s store, Brandon Crawford was murdered by Jamaal J. Leslie, who used a gun to commit the murder. He was guilty of first-degree murder, sentenced to life in prison and lost his appeal in the case.
Hardy and Stecker are not the ones who brought these people to town. It started a long time ago with a city council person, and at this time I can’t remember her name.
McHenry. Lori McHenry. After her damage was done, her and her dumb a$$ kids split town. Onto the next victim.
Yes, that’s her.
Sorry. Henry, not McHenry
Lori Henry?
I can’t believe that there is another shooting in Mason City’s north end. Even more unbelievable , is that MCPD is getting nowhere in the investigation.
What are the police going to do when nobody wants to talk? Just another drug deal gone bad. I say let them kill each other, one less thug to deal with.
I’d go to the video evidence, if it exists.
Another wonderful property owned by THEEEEE one and only Russ Hardy! That POS should be fined or better yet, Should be stopped from buying more properties in this town! He is the one that has brought all these cockroaches to our town! The POS lives in Asbury and does not give a SHIAT!
the stecker crime family brought a lot more
Hardy is the King of Slumlords in Mason City
