ANOTHER SCHOOL/PUBLIC SHOOTING

[HairOfTheDog]

I know what you mean, FAHQTOO.

There are too many of these stories and too many whack jobs roaming around shooting people. It's gotten to a point where having catch-all threads for school and public shootings makes sense because there would be so many separate threads otherwise. It's crazy.

I'm not quite numb to it, but no longer feel the sense of shock that I once did. Just frustration and sadness. It really is horrible for the victims and their families, in every case. In this one, Benlolo's 2-year-old had his mother taken away from him in an instant.

These are the victims of the Baltimore mall shooting. They worked together at a skateboard shop in the mall where she was the assistant manager.


Tyler Johnson - 25 and Briana Benlolo - 21. RIP.

Baltimore police have now identified 19-year-old Darius Marcus Aguilar as the killer. He shot both victims to death and had crude explosives with him as well. Aguilar reportedly jumped out of the store's dressing room and fired at the workers, injuring 5 others in the process before killing himself.

There's been speculation by media and the public that this was a domestic dispute taken into the public realm by an ex of Benlolo. But, police claim they haven't determined if there was any connection at all between Aguilar and/or Johnson and Benlolo.
