Officers were trying to clear crowds blocking the road when gunfire erupted around 12:25 AM. The community is reeling; Mayor Malik Evans condemned the shooter as a coward and urged witnesses to come forward. Authorities are reviewing footage to identify suspects and ramping up patrols with state and county help ahead of the weekend. Zahnia, a student at Rochester City Schools, is remembered with deep sorrow as the district offers grief counseling to her classmates. The investigation continues.
