NEW YORK, Oct 11 —A 45-year-old man shot and killed seven relatives and a family friend at a home in Pennsylvania before apparently taking his own life, authorities said yesterday.
The victims in the city of Erie included two young children and a woman who was eight months pregnant.
Police responded Friday evening to reports of shots fired and discovered two women dead in the street, Erie Police Chief Rick Lorah told reporters.
Video evidence showed the pair arriving at the residence appearing distressed, then attempting to contact neighbors and enter the house, Lorah said.
The gunman exited the house, shot them, and returned inside, he said.
The man barricaded himself inside the home as police surrounded the building and ordered him to exit. He was later found inside with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, Lorah said.
The shooter and seven of his victims were related, Lorah said. The eighth victim was a family friend.
Dead inside the home were a five-year-old boy and a one-year-old girl. The others were men and women ranging in age from 19 to 51. One of the women was eight months pregnant.
Local news outlet Erie News Now said responding officers were being offered counseling over the horrifying incident.
“Many people across our community are hurting today: the neighbors who witnessed what happened, the families and friends of those who were killed, the officers and first responders who answered these calls, and others struggling to make sense of something so terrible,” Erie Mayor Daria Devlin told reporters yesterday.
“We cannot undo what happened last night, and we cannot take away the grief that these families are carrying, but we can make sure that they don’t have to carry it alone,” she said.
Mass shootings occur frequently in the United States, where guns vastly outnumber people and efforts to increase firearm restrictions face steep political and legal hurdles. — AFP
