(Radio Iowa) – One of the Quad Cities’ largest hospitals was locked down last (Wednesday) night by the threat of gun violence. As Davenport police responded to a shots fired call at an apartment complex, an 18-year-old woman who’d been shot was brought to the E-R at Genesis East Hospital in a private vehicle. It initiated the hospital’s lockdown protocols.
The SUV’s driver, identified as 19-year-old Travyzz Binion of Burlington, was reportedly carrying a backpack, which police say contained a gun, marijuana, a digital scale and packaging materials. Police say Binion confessed to shooting the woman, who underwent emergency surgery and is reportedly in stable condition.
Binion is now jailed for attempted murder and a long list of other charges.
