Four people were found dead and seven others were injured in a stabbing rampage across multiple areas in Rockford, Illinois, on Wednesday afternoon, police say, and a suspect is in custody.
A 15-year-old girl, a 63-year-old woman, a 49-year-old man, and a 22-year-old man were killed in the incident and five others who were injured were transported to local hospitals with “serious injuries,” the Rockford Police Department said in a news release Wednesday evening.
Five people were injured in the city of Rockford and two people were injured in the jurisdiction of Winnebago County, Rockford police spokesperson Michelle Marcomb told CNN.
Nah, my go-to is the 2019 Dayton OH shooting.
Guy opens fire in a busy shopping district in front of police officers and still kills nine people and injures 17 others. From the first shot he fired until the police fatally shot him was 32 seconds. Twenty-six casualties in the best-possible scenario for police response.
GUNS. ARE. THE. FUCKING. PROBLEM.
