Six people were killed during a shooting spree at a Virginia Walmart on Wednesday; the perpetrator was a shop employee who later reportedly committed suicide, according to police. According to Chesapeake, Virginia, police chief Mark Solesky, four more victims were still hospitalised on Wednesday in an unknown condition as a result of the Tuesday night shooting spree inside the Walmart.

the business clarified that it was “praying for those affected, the neighbourhood, and our coworkers. We have a close relationship with law enforcement and are committed to helping our colleagues.” Louise Lucas, a Chesapeake-area state senator from Virginia, expressed her “heartbreak that America’s newest mass massacre took place… in my constituency.”

She declared on Twitter that she would not stop until we found a way to put an end to the scourge of gun violence that has claimed so many lives in our nation. “Tragically, our town is suffering from yet another episode of senseless gun violence just as families are gathering for Thanksgiving,” Virginia congressman Bobby Scott tweeted.

Three nights prior, a shooter in Colorado Springs opened fire inside an LGBTQ nightclub, killing five people and injuring at least 18 others in what is being looked into as a probable hate crime. Authorities claimed that a long rifle was used by the suspect, identified as 22-year-old Anderson Lee Aldrich, at the club where revellers were celebrating the Transgender Day of Remembrance, which honours trans persons who have been violently attacked.

In what local police are calling the bloodiest mass shooting in recent US history, a shooter opened fire at the Walmart in El Paso, Texas, killing 20 people and injured 25 more.

Up to 30 individuals may have been shot at Walmart near Cielo Vista Mall on Saturday morning, according to sources (Aug 3). Twelve individuals were rushed to the hospital, and eight bodies were discovered at the scene, according to Allen.
