Un uomo armato in Texas ha ucciso due persone e ferito un'altra persona sabato prima di spararsi a morte, ha detto la polizia nella zona di Fort Worth.
The shooting in Haltom City also left three officers with non-life-threatening gunshot wounds, Sgt. Rick Alexander said during a news conference. The officers were recovering in local hospitals Saturday night.
Police were called to a residence in the 5700 block of Diamond Oaks Drive North on a report of shots fired, Alessandro ha detto.
“It appears our officers did return fire during the incident,” Alessandro ha detto, though the result of those shots was unknown.
One woman was found dead inside the home and a man was found fatally shot in the home’s driveway. An elderly woman who called 911 was shot but expected to survive, Alexander added.
The suspect was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound at another location near the home, Alessandro ha detto. There was a military-style rifle and a handgun near his body.
The Texas Rangers will investigate the shooting and will release more details as they become available, Alessandro ha detto.
The shooting comes as the nation is struggling with widespread gun violence in both small and big cities. As of late Saturday, c'era stato 302 mass shootings across the US this year, secondo il Archivio della violenza armata. The organization and CNN define a mass shooting as one in which at least four people are shot, not including the shooter.
