This was in the national news like a week ago in the Nerherlands. I remember coming across an article about it.
Over here in 'murica, the only news that makes headlines is about either Biden, Trump, Musk, or mass shootings. 🙄
Not even that. With about two mass shootings per day on average, most mass shootings don’t make the news.

A “mass shooting” has four or more people being hit, which happens about 800 times a year in the US. And about once a year in other western countries, if at all.
okay that’s insane
