Four people, including a three-month-old baby, were injured and a woman was killed in a deadly shooting in the US state of Virginia.
A shooting Tuesday night (local time) in Richmond, Virginia left one person dead and several others injured.
According to Newsweek, two women, two teenagers and a child were targeted in the deadly shooting, and one of the two women died at the hospital.
Richmond Police Chief Gerald Smith said: “One of the hardest things I have to say is that a three-month-old baby was shot in this shooting. Now this three-month-old baby is in critical condition.”
At present, agents are seeking to identify and arrest the culprit and have called on those with information to take the lead, Newsweek wrote.
The shooting came as Florida officials announced on Sunday that a three-year-old child had been killed and a woman injured in a shooting in the state.
Comparing the statistics of violence with weapons between the United States and other countries of the world, the United States is a very exceptional country, in which the rate of violent shootings is higher than any other country in the world; Although the United States accounts for about five percent of the world’s population, it accounts for nearly 31 percent of those who commit armed genocide.
