WASHINGTON: A armed man killed at least four people Wednesday at a hospital campus in Tulsa, Oklahoma, said the police, the latest mass shooting to surprise America who came when the Texas family bury them dead after the school massacre almost a week ago.The suspect, armed with rifles and pistols, was also killed in an attack on the campus of the St. Health System Hospital. Francis, said the police.
“At present we have four dead civilians, we have one dead shooter, and at this time we believe it is ourselves,” said Deputy Head of the Tulsa Police Department Eric Dalgleish.
He said the officers immediately responded after an emergency call arrived that a shooter had reached the second floor of the clinic attached to St. Francis. The police went to floor by floor, room after room in an effort to clean the building as long as what was described by the authorities as an active shooter situation.
Previously, Police Captain Tulsa Richard Meulenberg said officers treated the scene as a “disaster,” with “some” people shot and “some injured.”It is unclear how many other people are injured.Dalgleish said that all attacks from the time of emergency calls came to the time the officers involved the shooter lasting about four minutes.
US President Joe Biden has been given a briefing on Tulsa Shooting, the White House said in a statement, adding that the government had offered support to local officials.
Uvalde funerals
Elizabeth Buchner, a legal assistant who lives behind the clinic where the shooting took place, said he rushed out of his house when he heard a harder helicopter and a harder commotion coming from the hospital.”That is the most law enforcement I have ever seen in one place throughout my life,” Buchner, 43, told AFP by telephone.
He said he watched the tactical team rushed in one of the buildings, part of the response he described as “fast and strong,” with “no doubt.”The shooting was the latest in a series of deadly attacks by armed people who had shaken the United States in the past month.On May 14, a white supremacy targeting African -Americans killed 10 people in a grocery store in Buffalo, New York. The shooter survived and faced accusations.
Ten days later, an 18-year-old armed man armed with AR-15 exploded to elementary school in the small town of Uvalde in Texas and killed 21 people-19 of them small children were shot dead by law enforcement.On Wednesday, one of the two teachers killed in the attack was determined to rest at Uvalde, the day after the first funeral for children.
Weapons regulations face deep resistance in the United States, from most Republican and some Democrats of Rural State.But Biden – who visited Uvalde during the weekend – swear earlier this week to “continue to push” for reform, saying: “I think everything becomes very bad so that everyone becomes more rational about it.”
Some main federal parliament members also voiced careful optimism and a group of bipartisan senators working throughout the weekend to pursue the possibility of compromise.They are reportedly focused on the law to increase the minimum age for the purchase of weapons or to allow the police to expel weapons from people who are considered as a threat to themselves or others-but not on direct ban on high-powered rifles such as weapons used on Uvalde and Buffalo.
