Gunman, Three Others Killed in Arkansas Shootings

Source: NBC News

A man suspected of fatally shooting two people Saturday inside an Arkansas home and a worker at a nearby business has been found dead of a gunshot wound inside a stopped car, police said.

Jonesboro Sgt. Doug Formon said a man and a 13-year-old girl were killed Saturday afternoon inside the residence in east Jonesboro, Arkansas.

Four other people — including two boys — were injured and were taken to hospitals in Memphis, Tennessee. He said the children, ages 8 and 10, were transported in critical condition.

Formon said it appeared a family was having a party or gathering. Police received a 911 call about the shooting at the residence around 1:00 p.m. At 1:22 p.m., police responded to a report of a second shooting at a business.

This is yet another fucking story about guns and ammunition in the hands of the public.

No offense meant toward the Dumbass community.

Never forget it's the guns because the more guns we have in more people's hands = the more shootings. I was in England once and a gun murder happened in Scotland and yet miles away in London and all across the country it was national news because they simply don't have all the guns and gun bloodshed that we do and yetall of the countryside people still hunt. You know when 20 babies get gunned down by a crazy person or when somebody else gets on "The Navy Yard" facility and more people die and yet as a nation we still do nothing ..... this shit is getting old.

11. If you find it absolutely necessary to show up with a gun, maybe you shouldn't go there -- go a park
