Really, Ron... a group?

A group of what... farmers, deer hunters or skeet shooters?
• TORONTO • Two suspects and a man wounded in an apparent daytime gun battle at an Etobicoke high-rise complex aren’t cooperating with police.

That leaves Toronto Police suspecting the 1:50 p.m. Thursday shooting is part of some sort of push into Tandridge Cres., in the Albion Rd.-Hwy. 401 area, by a group from Dixon Rd.
Hmmm, that's a little vague... apparently, this "group" is divided into shooters and neat-freaks.
Supt. Ron Taverner said two women were charged for being accessories after the fact for trying to destroy evidence and mislead investigators.

“They were helping dispose of evidence, trying to clean up blood.”
Gotta be careful with those g-words, right?

We sure don't wanna offend anybody.
