Two dead after Las Vegas court building shootinghttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8440483.stm
A gunman has opened fire in a federal court building in Las Vegas, killing one security officer and wounding another before being shot dead.
The incident took place early in the morning in a building more than a mile north of the Las Vegas Strip.
The gunman was shot in the head as he fled shortly after firing off several rounds within the court complex.
Chief Deputy Marshal Roxanna Lea Irwin said she believed he had acted alone. No motive was given for the attack.
Both the building and several streets nearby were evacuated and searched following the shooting.

The class-action federal lawsuit against ABB was filed by Hendron and several other employees in July, 2007. The suit charged that ABB’s pension review committee mis handled employee finances and incurred unreasonable losses.
Trial began on Monday in Kansas City federal court with Judge Nanette K. Laughrey presiding. Opening statements had taken place and witness testimony began. The case was to resume Thursday morning, a little more than two hours after the shots were fired and blood spilled at ABB in St. Louis.

Three killed in University of Alabama shooting
BIRMINGHAM, Alabama (Reuters) - Three faculty members at the University of Alabama in Huntsville were killed and three other staff members wounded in a shooting on Friday at a science building on the campus, authorities said.
Huntsville police and a university spokesman said the suspected shooter, a female faculty member, was in custody.
CNN's Alabama affiliate said the suspect had been informed before the shooting that she was being denied tenure at the university.
"There was a shooting at the University of Alabama at Huntsville between 4:05 p.m. and 4:15 p.m. There are three fatalities and three critical injuries and the suspect is in custody. The campus is in lockdown. We are working to save these lives," Trent Willis, chief of staff and communications for the city of Huntsville, told Reuters.
Huntsville police said all of the dead were faculty members and a witness said the shooting appeared to have taken place during a biology faculty meeting at the university's Shelby Center.
"I heard three shots and screaming," Melanie Gates, an engineering student at the campus, told Reuters.
She was near the exit of the Shelby Center when the shootings happened and she said the sound of the shots appeared to come from the third floor, where the biology faculty meeting was taking place.
There have been a number of deadly school shootings in the United States in recent years, including a rampage at Virginia Tech University in 2007 when a student killed 33 people, including himself.

An Inskip Elementary School teacher was charged this afternoon with two counts of attempted first-degree murder in the shootings of the school's principal and assistant principal.

― am0n, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 14:35 (ten years ago) link
FedEx employee Liza Aiken saw the shooter, a 19-year-old man she said was a loader, just before she heard gunfire. Aiken was doing address corrections on some packages when she said she “heard a clink.
“I looked to my left. I saw him standing there and the knife was on the ground. He dropped his knife. He had an assault rifle. He had bullets strapped to his chest like Rambo. I mean he looked like he was heading into war. As soon as I saw him, I ran the other way. I ran and made sure that people upstairs were gone. He was in all black. I think he had a camo vest. He had an assault rifle and bullets strapped to his chest.”
Aiken said she previously reported the shooting suspect to her superiors. She said he pointed a work laser in her eye.

Then he once again pretended that someone other than George W. Bush was president on 9/11, since it was Bush that "kept us safe."
