reports are still coming in about a gunfight that occurred today @3 pm in a empty lot when a group of police officers, including the Sherriff, 2 deputies and a private citizen confronted a group of 5 young men brandishing handguns and threating any lawman with death.
Attempts to peacefully disarm the gang ended abruptly when reports say they aimed their pistols at the lawmen.
Two of the gang members were killed in the ensuing firefight, while one officer sustained a non life threating gunshot.
The County Sheriff arrived on the scene and was attempting to make arrests.

Link? Location? Confirmed Date?

You're coming up a bit short on confirming the actual specifics of this incident here...

Yep. I can confirm. My first cousin about 5 times removed was part of the group targeted but was unarmed and wasn’t shot.

You must have and awfully slow news service. Smile

If this happened today, it would be blurb on the evening news, and quickly forgotten.

The OP is trying to be cute. He's referring to the gunfight at the O.K. Corral.
