Seven people were injured in a shooting early Sunday on Kirkwood Avenue in Bloomington, Indiana, during Homecoming. Mayor Kerry Thompson that afternoon blamed Indiana firearms statutes and sought a statute allowing cities to impose metal-detector screening already used at stadiums and private events, saying requests that people leave guns at home are not enough even though officers were present in numbers she judged adequate. The same street had nine people needing medical care after shots in April and a 19-year-old shot in the neck in September, for three incidents in one year. Such screening would also stop lawful carriers at the gathering and while they walk to and from vehicles.
