Two youths were shot and police rounded up some 30 other youngsters for questioning.

Michael Schoenberg, reportedly not a gang member, was in critical condition from a wound of the abdomen.

"Out Of Bounds" Police gave this account: One "Dragon" told Schoenberg and Vasquez they should stay off Madison street because it was "out of bounds" for the "Enchanters" gang. From the friend's home, Vasquez sent word to his gang that was in trouble and needed protection.

"Enchanters" drifted into the neighborhood, and Schoenberg and Vasquez felt it was safe to leave. Several blocks from the friend's home, a "Dragon" drew a gun from a paper bag, fired twice and fled. Police began rounding up known "Dragons" and "Enchanters."
