Gunman kills at least four at Tulsa hospital in new US mass shooting: police

TULSA, 03 June 2022, (TON): A gunman killed at least four people Wednesday at a hospital building in Tulsa, Oklahoma, police said “the latest mass shooting to convulse the United States as Texas families bury their dead after a school massacre nearly 10 days earlier.”

Police said “the suspect, who was armed with a rifle and a handgun during his attack on the Saint Francis hospital campus, died by suicide.”

Tulsa Police Department Deputy Chief Eric Dalgleish told “right now we have four civilians that are dead, we have one shooter that is dead, and right now we believe that is self-inflicted.”

He said “officers responded immediately after emergency calls came in reporting that a gunman had stormed into the second floor of the Natalie Building, which houses a clinic on the Saint Francis campus.”

Police were hearing shots in the building when they arrived, according to Dalgleish, who said “officers then searched floor by floor, room by room while trying to clear the building during what authorities described as an active shooter situation.”
