USA: Virginia mass shooting kills 7

Seven people were killed Wednesday in the US state of Virginia in a mass shooting at a Walmart store, according to the Washington Post.

The Chesapeake City Police reported that seven people, including the perpetrator, were killed as a result of a mass shooting last night at the Walmart store in the Sams Circle area.

The police department said on Twitter that the shooter is the only suspect in the new incident that occurred in the city located 240 km from Washington.

Gun violence is a problem in the United States, with more than 600 mass shootings since the beginning of 2022, according to the Gun Violence Archive website.

US lawmakers are trying to impose stricter restrictions on the use of weapons; nonetheless, no significant progress has been made.
