A crazed gunman allegedly shot three adults and a girl in a leafy section of Washington, DC, on Friday afternoon before taking his own life hours later as police closed in on the apartment where he was suspected of carrying out the attack, authorities said.
The suspect allegedly erected a “sniper-type setup” inside his fifth floor apartment and fired indiscriminately at passers-by at about 3:20 p.m. on Van Ness Street near Connecticut Avenue in the Northwest section of the city, police said.
His identity doesn’t reinforce The Narrative.
At 5 p.m. ET on Sunday afternoon, I did a Google search for Frank James, who shot ten people on the subway in Brooklyn on Tuesday. There was a grand total of one news story posted about this crime on Sunday, a “what you need to know” video from WPXI in Pittsburgh. Before that, there were three articles posted Saturday, one by a site called Complex, one from the UK’s Daily Mail, and a New York Post article. These were sparse results for a mass shooting in the nation’s largest city less than a week ago, but they weren’t surprising: when a story doesn’t fit the establishment media narrative, it tends to disappear quickly.
Ten people were struck by gunfire and two others were injured in a shooting at a South Carolina mall Saturday afternoon, police said.
Columbia police said at least one person opened fire at the Columbiana Centre after an apparent isolated conflict between a group of armed people.
NEW: Officials say they don't believe South Carolina mall shooting was "random."
"We believe that the individuals that were armed knew each other and there was some kind of conflict that occurred that resulted in gunfire." https://t.co/zWBou9ZI5w pic.twitter.com/tPw89qOGK2

New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) called for a “national response” to rising violence following a subway shooting that wounded over a dozen people on Tuesday.
Adams told CNN’s Dana Bash in an interview that increased violence is an issue affecting the entire country and said that while officials have recovered more than 1,800 guns in the last three and a half months, the city needed some assistance.
Federal Constitutional Carry would work.
WTF? Update
Update: Extensive search for gunman in Brooklyn subway shootings, what we know so far
According to a situation report issued to law enforcement at 10:41 am by DHS/CISA and obtained by ABC News: “The NYPD has informed the feds that police have a description of the suspect and have shared it with searchers. And that “investigators assess this was a coordinated attack, but the motive remains unclear.”
Multiple people were shot Tuesday morning in a gruesome shooting in a Brooklyn subway station during rush hour, officials said.
The bloody incident broke out around 8:30 a.m. at the 36th Street station for the D, N, R lines in Sunset Park.
Clair, a straphanger who witnessed the event while riding the Manhattan-bound N train, told The Post there were so many rounds fired off she “lost count.”
She said she saw the man — who was described as a 5-foot-5 black man, around 170 pounds wearing an orange vest and gas mask — drop “some kind of cylinder that sparked at the top.”
There may have been home made explosives involved, this is looking more like a terrorist incident than a mass shooting at this point.

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) — Video obtained by CBS13 from hours before the Sacramento mass shooting appears to show suspects Smiley Martin and his brother Dandrae Martin together with Joshua Hoye-Lucchesi, who was one of the six people killed.
The video was timestamped at 9:45 p.m. on Saturday, approximately four hours and 15 minutes before the shooting happened.
The wounded older brother of the Sacramento shooting suspect has now also been arrested in connection with the violent spree that killed six people on Sunday night.
Smiley Martin, 27, was taken into custody on Tuesday morning while still recovering in the hospital where he has been since the incident.
He is charged with possession of a machine gun.
He is the older brother of Dandrae Martin, 26, who was taken into custody yesterday.
The Sacramento Police Department made the first arrest on Monday related to a mass shooting in the early hours of Sunday morning that left six people dead and 12 others wounded.
Dandrae Martin, 26, was arrested on Monday morning and is facing charges of assault with a deadly weapon and unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon.
Sacramento District Attorney Anne Marie Schubert said her office is reviewing evidence and could file additional charges.
Heidelberg university shooting: Gunman dead after injuring several
A lone gunman is dead after injuring several people inside a lecture hall at Heidelberg University, German police have said.
They said the gunman was in possession of a “long gun”, and that a large operation including emergency services was under way at the university’s campus in Neuenheimer Feld.
It is not yet clear how many people have been injured, or how badly.
Heidelberg is a university town in the southwest of Germany.
The parents of Ethan Crumbley ignored troubling signs surrounding their 15-year-old son for months before he allegedly opened fire, killing four students and wounding seven others at his Detroit-area high school last month, according to prosecutors.
“[Jennifer and James Crumbley] were in a better position than anyone else in the world to prevent this tragedy, but they failed to do so,” Oakland County Prosecutor Karen McDonald said in a Thursday filing. “The evidence will further show that these Defendants willfully ignored the needs and well-being of their son and the threat he posed to others.”
Blame Ethan Crumbley. Blame his parents. And blame Oxford school officials.
Democrats inevitably demand more gun restrictions whenever a school shooting takes place, and the tragic events at Michigan’s Oxford High School on November 30 are no exception.
“We need better gun laws,” said Karen McDonald, the Democratic prosecutor for Oakland County, Michigan, in a press conference after the incident.
Also – Parents of Michigan shooting suspect Ethan Crumbley appear in court
The parents of accused Michigan school shooter Ethan Crumbley were hauled into court for a preliminary hearing Tuesday — but will remain locked up while lawyers review a “staggering” amount of evidence.
James and Jennifer Crumbley each face four counts of involuntary manslaughter as accessories to their son’s first-degree murder case and were ordered held on a $500,000 bond each after being taken into custody.
School officials who work at Michigan’s Oxford High School could face criminal charges in connection to last week’s shooting that left four students dead, said a prosecutor involved in the case on Monday.
Speaking during an interview, Oakland County Prosecutor Karen McDonald said that Oxford High School staff had the legal basis to search alleged shooting suspect Ethan Crumbley’s backpack last week. On Nov. 30, the day of the shooting, Crumbley and his parents were called into a meeting with school staff over Crumbley’s allegedly violent and disturbing drawings depicting shootings.
Two lawyers representing the parents of Ethan Crumbley, the suspected Michigan high school shooter, said on Saturday that the handgun the teen allegedly used to kill and wound fellow students last week was actually “locked” up, contrary to earlier reporting.
Oakland County prosecutor Karen McDonald said earlier in the week that 45-year-old James Crumbley bought the handgun — a 9mm Sig Sauer — at a local firearms store on Nov. 26. She noted further that 15-year-old Ethan Crumbley was able to “freely” gain access to the pistol before he allegedly used it to shoot students at Oxford High School.
The parents of the teenage suspect in a Michigan high school shooting have been arrested following a short manhunt and face an uncertain future with authorities charging them for the actions of their clearly disturbed son, a development that could have far-reaching implications in terms of the law.
James and Jennifer Crumbley have been charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter after 15-year-old Ethan Crumbley went on a rampage at Oxford High School on Tuesday, claiming the lives of four of his fellow students in another of the tragic school shootings that have plagued the nation for years.
