Statement by Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh:
“I’m relieved no one was injured, but as a parent of city school students, I’m angry and upset. The incident is the result of too many guns on our streets and reckless actions by individuals that will not be tolerated in our community. I’m confident the Syracuse Police Department will find those responsible and hold them accountable.
Sadly, this occurrence is a reality that many parents face regularly. It reinforces the urgency of the efforts we are undertaking every day to turn back gun violence. Working with the School District and the Syracuse Police, I promise to continue to do everything in my power to keep our children safe.”
