“Aly & AJ ‘caught in crossfire’ of Sacramento mass shooting”

Pop duo Aly & AJ have revealed that they were forced to take cover during the mass shooting in Sacramento, where six people were killed and several others wounded.

“Our bus was caught in the crossfire but we sheltered in place and everyone in our touring group is ok. Thank you for everyone reaching out,” the sisters, Alyson, 33, and AJ Michalka, 30, said in a tweet Sunday.

“A reminder to keep your loved ones extra close today. We have to do something about gun violence in this country.”

In another tweet, the former Disney divas said they were “distraught” by the shooting in downtown Sacramento on Sunday afternoon.

“All of our thoughts are with the families of those who lost their lives and those recovering today. We’re praying for the health care workers caring for them. We hope all our fans made it home safe,” they added.

Two dead victims have been identified by their families so far – Sergio Harris, a 38-year-old married dad of two daughters, and DeVazia Turner, 29, of Vacaville.

Another man and three women were slain and 12 others were wounded when gunshots erupted around 2 a.m. as crowds emptied out of the capital city’s bars and nightclubs.

It is now believed that at least two shooters opened fire, cops said. The suspects remained at large as of early Monday.  

Singer Kali Uchis, who was one of the openers for a concert held at the Golden 1 Center, also tweeted a statement about the massacre.
