A shooting at a school in Texas left four people injured

According to Fars News Agency’s International Group, the media reported on Wednesday night, Tehran time, about a shooting at a school in Texas in the United States and the presence of police officers.

Sputnik news agency quoted local sources as saying that several people were shot dead at a high school in Mansfield, Texas, on Wednesday morning local time. Reports indicate that police officers were present at the school.

Police said officers from the unit were present at the scene of the shooting at Timberview High School and would be notified as soon as the search was completed. The officials of this school also announced the closure of this educational place and the gathering of students inside the school.

Police say the scene is now safe. Police also confirmed that several people were injured in the shooting at Timberwave High School. Police say there is a house in Arlington where the shooter is thought to be hiding.

Local sources also reported that four people were injured during the incident. The latest reports indicate that the perpetrator of this incident has been arrested.

Armed violence, especially indiscriminate shooting, is an ongoing challenge for US officials. Many experts cite freedom of arms as one of the reasons for this crisis.

Comparing statistics on gun violence between the United States and the rest of the world makes the United States a very exceptional country: it has a higher rate of violent shootings than any other country in the world; Although the United States accounts for about 5 percent of the world’s population, it accounts for nearly 31 percent of those who commit mass murder.

In addition, statistics from the Congressional Research Service show that Americans own about half (48%) of the total 650 million civilian weapons worldwide.
