Analysis Summary:

The article's accuracy is mixed. It correctly states that a teenager was arrested after a triple shooting. However, the snippet claims the victims were shot dead in a hair salon, which is contradicted by Verification Source #1, which states one teenager was killed and three were injured. The article appears to be minimally biased, presenting the information in a straightforward manner.
