Police in Austin, Texas have arrested a suspect in the overnight mass shooting in the city that left 14 people wounded, two critically. The incident occurred in an entertainment area in downtown Austin. No motive has been revealed for the crime.
Legislators in Austin just passed a bill that allows Texans to carry firearms without a license or training.
In a series of tweets after the mass shooting in Austin, Mayor Steve Adler said:
“One thing is clear – greater access to firearms does not equal greater public safety.”
