“Our values are not changing. Akron’s values are not changing,” said Mayor Shammas Malik at the Akron “Hands Off!” protest. “We hear you and we are here for you.”

“It’s not okay to come after our veterans, it’s not okay to come after our libraries and our books, it’s not okay to come after Medicaid that covers millions of Ohioans,” said State Senator Casey Weinstein. “It’s not okay to come after our social security that my in laws depend on.”

19 News has reached out to the Republican Party of Ohio for a response to the protests but we have not yet heard back.

“What Happened? I was taking my son to my mom’s house, and a guy held me at gunpoint. Told me to get on the ground. I got on the ground. I didn’t have any money. He got into the car, told me to get my son out. It took too long. He threw me out the back and the gun went off. Then he took my son out and threw him on the ground.”

Muscatell was rushed to Metro Health Medical Center by EMS with a gunshot wound to her face.

She has more than a dozen stitches and is home to begin the healing process.

Several of her neighbors expressed outrage about what happened to her and her young son.

Here’s Howard Fetterman, who lives in the same Detroit Shoreway community as she does.

“Really, a baby with her. That’s ridiculous and insane. I think it’s disgusting for somebody to shoot a lady with a baby. They ought to catch the son-of-a-gun.”

Police found Muscatell’s car a short time after the carjacking near her home. The shooter is still on the loose.
