                 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.
