Multiple shootings occur in North Carolina & Washington D.C.

Four people have died in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, while one is dead in a shooting at a funeral home in Washington D.C.

Police say four people have been killed after a shooting in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

According to a neighbour, the shooting happened in a quiet street inside a house occupied by a mother and three children.

Meanwhile in Washington D.C., one man has died and three other people have been hurt in a shooting at a funeral home.

Several people who were standing in the block after the funeral were apparently targeted, but police don’t yet know why.

Police are still working on investigating both shootings.

This comes just a day after a mass shooting occurred at a major Bank in Louisville Kentucky.

At least five people are dead, as well as the gunman, and several others were hurt.

The five dead were colleagues of the gunman who was in his mid-20s.

A doctor who is treating the Louisville victims, begged lawmakers to do something about gun violence in the country.

“I’m weary. There’s only so many times you can walk in the room and tell someone they’re not coming home tomorrow,” Dr. Jason Smith told reporters.

“I would simply ask you to do something. Because doing nothing, which is what we have been doing, is not working.”

Mayor of Louisville, Craig Greenberg, mimicked the doctor’s message in a press conference.

“Change our state law to let Louisville make its own decisions about reducing illegal guns on our streets & gun violence that is killing far too many people,” he said.
