Gun fire erupted early this morning on Fourth Street, according to Troy police.
Three men and two women were shot about 12:30 a.m. in the area of 121 Fourth St. None of the injuries are believed to be life threatening, according to media reports.
The shooter fled on foot. There is no description available at this time. Police are not releasing a motive or any information on if the shooter was acting alone, according to media reports.

More information as it becomes available. 
As one business owner in the area, with concern and bit of outrage, called for more foot patrols, another person said, albeit facetiously, “Troy needs a police commissioner.”

  1. How's that SAFE Act working out? Disarm and regulate the bejesus out of the law-abiding populace so they live in fear of the "Gangsta" types that run the streets. Simply put, f*@£ Cuomo and Rosamilia. Scumbags.

    1. Yeah, sh?t for brains, allowing more guns on the street is the solution.
      Your clouded thinking looks like you had some Jack Daniels or couple of joints for breakfast.

    2. " Yeah, sh?t for brains, allowing more guns on the street is the solution"

      Who let more guns on the street Douc*e bag? The draconian knee jerk reaction to sandy hook and the continuous attack on legal and lawful gun owners has done nothing for public safety.

    3. Guns on the street is good, as long as the right people have them. People that have gone through extensive back ground checks for mental history, domestic violence, criminal past and or any other flag indicating a possibility they present a danger. NY especially in this area has licenses issued only after a Judge that has seen an FBI background check approve of the issuance. Perhaps if a law abiding citizen were there with a gun, less people would have been shot and perhaps the culprit wouldn't be walking freely amongst us to shoot someone else!

  2. What are the chances this occurred around the area of the infamous "Kokopellas" ?

    3. The SLA hearing are set for the demise of this repeat problem. Some police have been asked to stop by at the hearing and tell us what you think. The end is near for kokos.

  3. Word is bill dunne has commissioned chef paul purdhommes to create a pedestrian alley behind his house. Chef paul is very good with computers we hear. Too bad he wasn't involved in the franklin alley project. It would have come to fruition

    1. Word is that your comment has ZERO bearing on the topic at hand. Anyway, let these pants-sagging pukes come near me or mine. I've got something that'll trump their stolen peashooters anyday. Troy needs vigilante justice. Enough is enough. King Louie, if you're reading this, take heed; the populace isn't having it anymore.

Did he take his meds? He will encourage the cops to take it easy on te investigation till he can talk to the shooter and see if he's a good guy and all the facts

  10. Franco. Remember the good old days. The days when troy leadership and code was effective. You know under the reign of harry and dan. This place would have been locked up pad locked regardless of abatement hearing. Where is this administration on this issue? Why has nothing been done. Why does one business ruin it for the rest. We need dan and harry back. This would not have been tolerated

    3. Three innocent victims were shot. Cooney says "not life threatening" one of the girls had her lag shattered and will need metal rods implanted. Lou and Cooney evidently don't think this is a big deal. Great leadership.

  18. Here is the long and short of this. Lou and his flac-hack Morris put out press releases that Troy is on the upswing and their main concern is public safety. 5 people shot with 3 innocent bystanders being hit with serious injuries. They weren't with the intended victim just out trying to have a good time. (where's Bob Dorehty) yet Lou hasn't a clue on what to do. Just another look into Lou's failure is 2 good young cops being hung out to dry and spokesperson Fitzgerald blames Willie Bacote. Now there's 2 the FBI should pounce on but they're both in Lou's inner prayer circle., 2 peas in a pod.

    4. Actually, you can dispute that. 8 murders in 2012 under teddy. Then 0 murders in 2013 in troy when teddy was no longer in control. Then, teddy is back in control as of february this year and already we have 3 murders since february. I heard the council might actually look into this, considering all the concern over public safety.
