In Ferguson last night, gun violence once again marred the city's streets as two separate shootings took victims, according to Fox 2 Now and other sources. The first incident, which took place around 7:45 p.m. on the 7500 block of Halpin Drive, resulted in two males being hospitalized with one in critical condition. Witnesses reported a dark-colored sedan fleeing the scene.

Shortly afterward, the approximate area bore witness to further horror around 8:30 p.m. on the 7000 block of Halpin Drive, with a quadruple shooting that left one person dead and three injured. The Ferguson Police Department is now on the hunt for a small black Cadillac associated with this second shooting incident. Described as having a "shot-out" rear dash window, a spare tire for the front right wheel, no right side view mirror, and carrying a Missouri license plate TK4D4E, the car is key in what police are calling an "active and aggressive" investigation, as mentioned on First Alert 4.

First Alert 4 reports that further details about the victims or the motive behind the shootings are currently missing from public knowledge. The authorities have not shared any additional information about the extent of injuries of the three survivors from the second incident.

As the community reels, a statement from Ferguson Public Information Officer Pat Washington were published, in which it highlighted that the police efforts to locate the vehicle and bring the responsible parties to justice remain steadfast. "The investigation was 'active and aggressive,'" Washington said in a statement obtained by KSDK.
