Four people were killed in a shooting at a medical center in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the latest in a wave of deadly gun violence occurring across the United States.
According to authorities, a gunman opened fire Wednesday afternoon at the St. Francis Health System campus, shooting multiple people using at least two firearms. Authorities responded to a call after dispatchers received the report and made contact with the gunman, Tulsa Police Department Deputy Chief Eric Dalgleish said.
During a news conference, Dalgleish confirmed the number of dead and said the shooter also was dead, apparently from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Wednesday's attack comes after two high-profile shooting massacres in Buffalo, New York, where 10 Black people were killed, and Uvalde, Texas, where 19 children and two teachers were killed in May.

This is the 3ed meeting in a week that I can’t hear. One with Biden yesterday and the press brief with the Governor of Texas
0:40 that’s when everyone is like “why are we wearing these stupid masks?” I see this happen all the time and even over the last two years. As soon as one person takes off the face muzzle, most intelligent people realize it’s dumb and follow suit.
Maybe that surgeon should have taken better care of his patient……
Special loving shout out to this sign language lady… She did such a beautiful, awesome job relaying this solemn message
