After an 18-year-old man shot and killed her teacher at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, an 11-year-old girl smeared her friend's blood on herself to make it look like she had been killed.
There are flowers and plush toys at a memorial for the victims of the mass shooting. The photo was taken by Alex Wong.
The teacher and several other people in the classroom were shot by a man who shot through a small window in the door of her classroom.
She doesn't want another shooting to happen because she doesn't feel safe anymore.
Business as usual stopped, along with my heart, as he learned of the shooting at Robb Elementary School, and he described his experience treating children with injuries from an assault style rifle.
He kept children safe frombacteria and brittle bones, just as he kept children safe from guns.
Zeneta Everhart, the mother of a Tops supermarket employee who was shot multiple times during a mass shooting in Buffalo, N.Y., last month, said she can still feel the pain in her son's body.
Everheart wants people who weren't moved by her words to come to her home and help her clean up the damage done to her community by gun violence.
The parents of Lexi Rubio, a 10-year-old killed in the shooting in Uvalde, Texas, and New York officials, including New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Buffalo Police Commissioner Joseph Gramaglia, are scheduled to speak.
The two bodies were the exception to the list of survivors. As I waited there with my fellow Uvalde doctors, nurses, first responders and hospital staff, they never arrived. The bodies of 17 more children and the two teachers who cared for them were all left.
The man who killed 19 students and two teachers at Robb Elementary on May 24 was 18 years old when he bought the AK-15 style rifle. The 18-year-old Gendron is accused of killing 10 people at a Tops supermarket in a predominantly Black neighborhood of Buffalo. A bipartisan group of senators are discussing legislation for over a week after the mass shootings. Chuck Schumer is willing to give the group a few more days to work on proposals before he brings any bill to a vote. Schumer said that Murphy hoped to reach an agreement with Republicans by the end of the week.
The House will vote on a package of gun control legislation that includes raising the age to purchase a semi-automatic rifle to 21 and banning the sale of magazines that hold more than 10 rounds. The package isn't likely to pass the Senate as it would need 60 votes to break through the roadblock.
Here's everything that turned out to be false.
A student led the police to the scene of the shooting as they waited for tactical units to arrive.
The alleged Buffalo shooter was indicted for domestic terrorism.
McConnell asked Cornyn to work on bipartisan gun legislation.
