Really not that much in the news about this considering he killed 8 people......I wonder why? :dunno:

Not one link on CNN's homepage.

The man suspected of killing eight people in Chicago-area shootings has died after turning a gun on himself following a confrontation with federal law enforcement, police said.

Romeo Nance, 23, was found Monday by US Marshals near Natalia, Texas – more than 1,000 miles from where seven victims were found shot to death Sunday in two homes in the south Chicago suburb of Joliet, according to the Joliet Police Department. Authorities believe Nance is also linked to a Will County, Illinois, shooting that left a 28-year-old dead, Joliet Police Chief Bill Evans said Monday.

Nance shot himself with a handgun after being confronted by officials, police said.

 

Investigators have yet to determine Nance’s motive, but the suspect knew seven of the victims, who are believed to be from the same family, Evans said. The victims have not been publicly identified.

Just another day in America, hardly even news worthy anymore. 

It's just a mental health issue.

That's the best way to treat it, don't advertise it.

Just breeds copycats.

 

I found this highly alarming though. Virtually crickets until I read this in the local news.

Since 2020, the Owen Sound police have attended to 39 deaths in Owen Sound where the suspected cause was drug toxicity, the release said.
