Shooting in England @content

[mrsukyankee]

Officers have confirmed that a woman was shot dead at an address they are declining to reveal. Chief constable Shaun Sawyer says they are looking into reports she was related to the shooter and confirms they were at least known to each other.



The shooter then went out on to Biddick Drive and shot dead a “very young girl” and her male relative.



Within a “matter of minutes” he went on to shoot a couple – who are not thought to be in a life-threatening condition – before killing another man and woman. Sawyer said the murder weapon has been described as a “pump-action shotgun”, though they are not yet ready to describe it as such.


Police have described the incident as “domestically related” and say it then “spilled out on to the street”.


Police have said they are not yet able to confirm a motive for the shootings and are keeping an open mind. The anti-fascist campaign group Hope Not Hate has said that, while the shooter was clear about his support for politicians including Donald Trump and Nigel Farage, it sees no political motive.



They said the shooter was “plugged in” to the incel subculture, though he claimed not to fully identify with it.

This is the worst shooting we've had in at least 11 years.

I find incel “culture” deeply disturbing. Something more needs to be done because this is not a new theme.

I'm so sorry for everyone impacted.

Same. And the fact that he was into US Conservative/Republican culture too. The combo sounds like a misogynistic time bomb.
