(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article created 40 minutes after an event with no indication of notability. Currently, news says there are no injuries and no suspects. Reports say witnesses but no police heard the shots ([1]). This article violates WP:NOTNEWS and WP:TOOSOON. Zero indication at this point of sustained notability. EvergreenFir (talk) 02:48, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete unless there is a dramatic change in the reporting. At this time, it is reported that shots may have been fired, and that there are no injuries and no arrests. If that is reasonably accurate, then this incident is not notable. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 03:04, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as per WP:NOTNEWS. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm, so there's not even the slightest hint of notability anymore. GAB^gab 15:27, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
