The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

AKRON, Ohio — One man is dead and more than 20 others left injured following an overnight mass shooting at a block party in Akron early Sunday morning.

The Akron Police Department responded to the area of Kelly and 8th Avenue for several reports of shots fired shortly after midnight. ...

Earlier Sunday morning, Akron police had said it was believed there were 27 total gunshot victims, but updated information released in a statement from Mayor Shammas Malik and Police Chief Brian Harding shortly after 10:30 a.m. Sunday clarified those details to say the total number of victims is 25 -- including a 27-year-old man who has died.

"One firearm and several dozen casings have been recovered from the scene," according to a press release from Akron police.

It is unclear what led to the shooting and no arrests have been made at this time.  ...
