This morning around 4 a.m. there was another shooting in Williamsburg's south side. This one took place at South 2nd and Roebling Streets. As of 5 a.m. the 90th Precinct was still on the scene and doing an evidence search. One week ago, there was a shooting in the area as well, which left one man dead. Last weekend's incident happened on the same night that more machete stabbings occurred in the neighborhood.
