Another horrific shooting took place in the United States.
A gunman broke into an elementary school in Uvaldy, Texas, and opened fire, killing 15 people, including 14 students and a teacher.
[Greg Abbott/Governor of Texas: 14 students and a teacher were shot and killed in the violent and meticulous shooting of the shooter.] The
injured are said to have been transported to a nearby hospital for treatment.
The killer, an 18-year-old man named Salvador Romas, was shot and killed by police at the scene.
His killer is said to have first shot his grandmother before heading to his elementary school, but his motive is still unknown.
Police are investigating whether the deceased was suffering from a mental illness.
The perpetrator entered elementary school armed with an automatic rifle and pistol, but it is known that no one was able to stop it because there was no security guard to guard the school gate due to the ongoing shortage of jobs after the corona crisis.
U.S. President Biden, who is returning to the United States after a tour of Asia, is known to have received a report of the incident in his presidential plane.
The United States is in shock as 14 more children are killed in just 10 days after the shooting at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York that took 10 lives.
