Two Mass Shootings This Weekend in the United States


It has been a deadly weekend in the United States with two mass shootings.

Nine people have died in Dayton, Ohio. The gunman, 24-year-old Connor Betts, was also killed by police. Also among the dead was the gunman's sister.

The gunman opened fire with a .223-caliber high-capacity gun, killing nine and wounding 27.

The police were still trying to determine the motivation of the shooter.

In El Paso, Texas, another 20 were killed.

Six of the dead were from Mexico. The Mexican government says it will take legal action against the United States.

U.S. President Donald Trump said, "Perhaps more has to be done on guns".
