Day Around The Bay
--What is going on in this town? There was a mob-style shooting near the 5th and Harrison 80 off-ramp this afternoon. Someone shot 17 bullets into a rented blue Dodge Charger around 1 p.m. today, as both cars were getting off the highway and stopped at a light. The shooters sped off up Fifth Street in a green minivan, which hit another car in the getaway. The victim suffered life-threatening injuries but is as of now still alive.
