United States: shootings kill 12 dead in a seaside resort in Virginia beach

A municipal employee of a seaside resort on the US East Coast opened fire on Friday, May 31, in a building in the city, killing 12 people before being shot dead by police.
This umpteenth tragedy, in a country marked by gun violence, occurred in Virginia Beach, a city of 450,000 people located about 300 kilometers south of the federal capital, Washington. "We now have 12" dead victims, Virginia Beach Police Chief James Cervera told a news conference.
The death toll, which was previously 11, was revised upwards after the death of a victim who "succumbed to his injuries on the way to hospital". Four other injured people are treated in hospitals in the region and others could have gone on their own, said the police chief. The shooter was a municipal employee, and the investigation is ongoing. His motives remained, for the time being, unknown.
