Shooter kills two near Texas A&M University campus

Constable Brian Bachman attended a house that the gunman was "barricaded" inside. According to some reports he was there to serve an eviction notice.

He was shot in the front yard, before other officers arrived and shot the gunman, and began CPR on the constable.

Another policeman was shot in the leg and is in a stable condition.

Two civilians were shot, a woman who is in surgery and a male civilian who was pronounced deceased.

Two officers received non life-threatening injuries.

From what I understand:

1 LE Officer died
1 male, suspect, died
1 male civilian died (bystander)
1 female, bystander, wounded, in hospital/surgery (conflicting reports)
1 LE being treated for GSW, in hospital, expected to survive
1 LE serious condition, expected to survive (cannot confirm this)

I am fairly sure of the above, although I can't yet find an updated link. I heard it from Fox, national cable news.

God bless those LEs and civvies who have died, and may God have mercy on the suspect's soul.


Best-

This makes me so sad, and yet so grateful to our LE. They put everything on the line to keep us safe. Bless him and his loved ones.

Another nut job with a gun. We have to enforce stricter laws as to WHO is allowed to purchase firearms!

God bless all who were wounded or died. So sad.

How very sad! We need an island to put these mass shooters on. Give them a few guns and let them shoot up each other instead of innocent people.

 

[Kimberlyd125]

Unless there are warning signs before hand, there is not much that can be done sadly.

I'm interested to hear more about the gunman.

No.....................here we go again. GB those who have have died or was wounded. LE officers know they may not make it home when they go in for work, but you never expect it to happen. Those civilians had no reason to think it was anything other than a typical Monday.

Life is so precious and I am sick and tired of these senseless deaths/murders. The murderers have no right to take our loved ones from us. Kill themselves or each other, but not innocent people.

MOO
