At least one person was taken to VHC, per NBC.

VHC is not a trauma center.

VHC is not a trauma center.

It’s a level II trauma center.

Per LEO husband - Guy came up behind an officer and stabbed him in the neck. Officer turned, fired, accidentally hit a bystander, then shot and killed the guy who stabbed him. Then the officer died.

Seems as if the only shooting was from law enforcement.

The suspect stabbed an officer multiple times. Devastating for this officer's family.

Police shot the suspect dead. Can't say I am too sad about that.

Another mentally ill guy from Georgia. Had charges for being violent inside and outside of prison but released on reduced bond. Just another Tuesday here in the US.

To be clear, mentally ill people who are a real threat to themselves or others - not your regular old unhinged which is likely most of us.
