7 killed and 10 injured as a result of shooting in America

Quoting from “Independent”, according to the police, four people were killed and at least ten people were injured as a result of a shooting in a night club on Sunday night.

Police added that earlier on Sunday, officers found two adults and a 5-year-old child in a crashed car in the Echo Highlands area of ​​Birmingham, all three shot to death.

Birmingham Police Chief Scott Thurmond said in a press conference on Sunday: “In almost 26 years of my service in the police force, seven murders, 10 injuries have never happened in one day, and I think this incident is probably the saddest day of my service.” I am at the Birmingham Police Department.

No arrests have been made in connection with the crimes, according to officials, but Birmingham’s police chief said both incidents were not “random shootings” and that specific people were targeted.

According to IRNA, this shooting takes place when a 20-year-old man named Thomas Matthew Crooks fired several bullets at Trump from a distance of about tens of meters from his semi-automatic weapon during the election rally on Sunday morning in the city of Butler, Pennsylvania, USA. One of them hit his ear and three other bullets hit the people present. During this incident, two people, including the shooter, were killed and two others were injured.

The United States has seen a significant increase in mass shooting crimes and violence in recent years.

The Armed Violence Archive (GVA) previously announced that in 2023, more than 42,000 people in the United States died with firearms.

On the other hand, the American Federal Police (FBI) reported an increase in criminal incidents in schools and universities in this country.

According to this report, one out of every 10 incidents of crime and violence in this country occurs in schools or universities. This report claims that most of the victims of these crimes are black and Jewish students.
