This is one of the earliest news reports in the DM, it was a shocking story widely reported

Strangely there was another mass shooting in the US Plymouth around the same time

I'm pretty sure that was discussed here quite recently.

Yes...I definitely remember it as I live in Plymouth, and it was well covered in the national news.
I later learned that a former co-worker had close ties to those affected by it.
I read some of the personal accounts of the families given at the start of the inquest last week...heart breaking.
A very, very tragic case.
