No more news at present.

The world is in a very sad place atm. Is nowhere safe from lunatics?

[Old_Geezer]

Who is supplying all these illegal firearms ?
Why do the authorities not have a handle on stopping the trade ?

[hc4361]

We don't know that it is an illegal firearm.

[Jackdaw33]

As the police fired no shots I can only presume that the gunman killed himself after shooting the other two. All very mysterious.

Seems a bloke has shot his wife and a friend, then himself.

[bazwillrun]

let me guess...a love triangle... blokes wife having affair with friend..

[Old_Geezer]

It's used in a crime, I don't believe it was likely to be legit.

[youngmafbog]

If you are goibg to top yourself after what would it matter OG?

[Old_Geezer]

It matters because as guns proliferate in society the more likely these incidents are. Insane folk ought not be able to get a licence, so the number who do must be very small.

[Jackdaw33]

Two women and a man. I wonder who did the shooting.

It is in a rural area of Lincolnshire where farmers and there farm hands are mostly licensed to own shotguns for vermin control. I have heard of very few farmers who do not legally own a shotgun except Martin whatever who shot two gypsies breaking in his house. He was a recluse farmer. I never met him though.

Either an outraged and cheated wife/fiancé or an outraged and very surprised husband/fiancé!

Looks like it was a 'Gunman' not a gunwoman!!

[mikey4444]

We seem to have all the hallmarks of a cuckolded husband here.

[Old_Geezer]

I see. In which this particular incident may not be related to excess guns, or at least excess illegal guns. (I think the concern is still a valid one though.)

Not to mention the prolific clay shooting and Skeets shooters who own shotguns in rural areas.

[Mamyalynne]

Indications are that the man shot his wife and daughter, then himself.

[hc4361]

It was indeed a man who shot his wife and daughter, then himself. Very sa
