Recent shooting more tragic than most.
Scene of the crime. The Rock. A teen club geared towards Christians.
Our mission is to share Christ through christian entertainment that encourages Biblical principles, values and beliefs. We seek to be a place where quality Christian events win the lost and strengthen the believer. A place where God is seen, Love is felt, and Lives are changed. The Rock is more than just fun. It’s a place to go that’s safe, and where Jesus Christ is held above all things.
The victim. Teddy Jackson. A 26 year old Manual track star working security.
The family shared rap lyrics Jackson had just written Thursday: “When God sends his angels, would you be uplifted. He told you to listen, so don’t ask why.” [pjstar]
The gunman. Still at large.
“There was a fight going on in the street…There were about 25 people yelling and screaming. This one young guy started backing up, pulled out two guns and just started firing randomly into the crowd” said Partick Lang, and eyewitness.
Lang estimates about 15 shots were fired.
The gunman, he says, was standing 20 feet in front of him backing down the middle of the street as he fired. [week25]
