Belmont is a very safe town (it must have been some gangsta from RWC).

A man was fatally shot during an argument at a party early Saturday in Belmont and the suspect remains at large, authorities said.
Officers responded to reports of shots fired about 5:15 a.m. at an apartment on the 500 block of Ralston Avenue, near Granada Street, said Police Chief Dan DeSmidt of the Belmont Police Department.
A man, whose identity was not released, was found dead in the apartment, DeSmidt said.
It is unclear if the man lived at the apartment.
“It looked like it might have been a party or some kind of get together that turned into an argument that turned into a shooting,” DeSmidt said.
A male suspect fled the scene.
Detectives were in the process of interviewing “a handful” of witnesses who were at the party to determine an identification on the suspect, DeSmidt added.
“It appears that some of them might have known him,” DeSmidt said.
There were no other injuries in the shooting.
