Hamilton police arrested a man carrying a gun and a high-capacity magazine at a local festival, preventing a potential tragedy, and are searching for suspects who later used a baseball bat to attack a man in a nearby parking lot. The incidents occurred during the weekend and followed two separate shootings outside a bar and a club in overnight violence. Police are increasing their presence at the festival and several other fairs due to a concerning uptick in robberies and swarming incidents last summer.
