18-year-old, the author of the shooting that left three dead and three wounded in New Mexico

There was no supremacist manifesto, revenge work or student abuse. The 18-year-old who killed three people and wounded three others on Monday before being simply shot dead by police “He shot everything he could think of during the event,” said Steve Hebbe, the city’s police chief farmington (New Mexico),

This Tuesday, the police were investigating all possible clues that would allow them to understand what, according to some reports, could be 225 mass shootings of the year in the United States, although some sources do not count the attacker among the four deaths required to qualify as mass.

It is clear that their victims were so random that they could never understand what was happening to them. The woman’s body was left lying on the street when she fell out of the vehicle, while the road continued without her. another next door neighbor she saw a bullet enter her baby’s bedroom. The rampaging youth shot at cars, houses, churches and police officers who arrived at the scene, three of whom were injured in the “chaotic scene,” the sheriff described.

He was dressed in black and had at least three weapons with him, including the controversial one AR-15 assault rifle who stars in many headline-grabbing shootings.

«Do you think that such things will never happen in your city?, which only happens in other places, and all of a sudden you find it in your little community of 50,000,” Nick Akins, a high school teacher whose home was within the block cordoned off by police, told the cameras. According to him, his neighborhood was a “great place to live,” but as Congresswoman Teresa Leger Fernández told him, “our beautiful New Mexico is not immune to the shootings that happen every day across the country. Congress must do something now.”
