Two people were wounded in a shooting Sunday night on North Hill Street.

During an encounter on 6th Street, it was discovered that two people had been shot, authorities said.

All that money spent making North Hill Street didn’t do anything to make it a safer place to live. When I was a kid and went to school on that street I walked to school. We lived in one of those apartments on Thurmon Street. It’s still there today. We never had a problem with anyone. The only thing that’s changed is the people.
