Special Forces Soldier Kills 3, Wounds 3 at Illinois Bowling Alley in “Completely Random Act”

HeadlineDec 28, 2020

In Illinois, three people were killed and three others wounded Saturday after an active-duty Special Forces soldier opened fire at a bowling alley in the city of Rockford. Thirty-seven-year-old U.S. Army Sergeant Duke Webb was arrested and charged with murder and attempted murder. Police believe Webb had no ties to the victims; they’re describing the shootings as a “completely random act.” Nearly 42,000 people across the U.S. have been killed in gun violence in 2020 — a record toll.
