5 Killed in Nevada Shooting

HeadlineSep 07, 2011

Five people were killed on Tuesday when a gunman opened fire at a restaurant in Carson City, Nevada, before taking his own life. Three of the dead were uniformed members of the U.S. Army National Guard. Another four people were wounded. Sheriff Ken Furlong announced the attack.

Sheriff Ken Furlong: “Two were established dead at scene. There has been a third death during surgery. That reduces our victims that are patients down to six at this point and time. The deceased persons, at least two of the three, appear to be military folks. And so, we are working very closely with the attorney general’s office, Department of Public Safety, the FBI and the National Guard to work out those details.”
