A
2 mass shootings in less than 24 hours shock U.S.; 29 killed
By The Associated Press
It took just 30 seconds in
Ohio and zero bullets in
Texas for officers to stop
two mass shooters this
weekend, but not before
29 people were killed and
about 50 injured in less
than 24 hours.
Officers gunned down the
Ohio shooter at the door-
step of a bar-turned-hid-
ing place in the middle of
Dayton’s nightclub district,
and arrested the El Paso
shooter as hundreds fled
a crowded shopping cen-
ter. Though the two attacks
staggered a nation accus-
tomed to gun violence,
the bigger shock may
have been that the death
toll wasn’t worse.
In the Texas border city of
El Paso, a gunman opened
fire Saturday morning in
a shopping area packed
with thousands of people
during the busy back-to-
school season.
