Multiple people shot by a 'terrorist armed with an AR-15' in an Arizona shopping district, state senator says
2020-05-21
Hopefully this is just a criminal or gang thing, and not a jihadi.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Sen. Martín Quezada tweeted Wednesday evening: 'I just witnessed an armed terrorist with an AR-15 shoot up Westgate. There are multiple victims'

  • Glendale police confirmed the incident, saying three people were injured

  • The suspect is said to have surrendered and is now in custody

  • 'I saw 2 victims with my own eyes. Not sure how many others', Quezada add
Update at 2:20 a.m. EDT:
  • Gunman shot three people at the Westgate Entertainment District Wednesday

  • Suspect was identified Armando Hernandez, 20, by his mother, 12News reports

  • Disturbing footage, thought to have been taken by Hernandez, shows a gunman carrying out his rampage; the suspect is now in custody, police said

  • Officer Tiffany Ngalula did not confirm the identity of the gunman Wednesday evening but did say police are aware of the video circulating on social media

  • One of those injured is said to be in critical condition; two others were expected to survive following the shooting near the shopping district west of Phoenix
Update at 2:00 p.m. EDT: Moved to Page 3: Non-WoT because subsequent reports sound like a nutter (early schizophrenia?) rather than a jihadi or narco gang nonsense.
