SAN ANTONIO (AP) — U.S. authorities on Tuesday announced the arrests of four more people in last year’s smuggling deaths of 53 migrants, including eight children, who were left in a tractor trailer in the scorching Texas summer.
Authorities said the four Mexican nationals were aware that the trailer’s air-conditioning unit was malfunctioning and would not blow cool air to the migrants trapped inside during the nearly three-hour ride. When the trailer was opened in San Antonio, 48 migrants were already dead. Another 16 were taken to hospitals, where five more died.
The driver and another man were arrested shortly after the migrants were found. They were charged with smuggling resulting in death and conspiracy.
The four new arrests were made Monday in Houston, San Antonio and Marshall, Texas. Authorities said the smuggling operation transported migrants from Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico by sharing routes, guides, stash houses, trucks and trailers, some of which were stored at a private parking lot in San Antonio.

Read more: https://www.aol.com/news/7-shot-2-tramp ... 47913.htmlSeven people were shot and two others have been trampled after a shooting inside a nightclub in Wichita, Kansas, early Sunday morning.
Officers were outside of a nightclub located at 222 North Washington Street in Wichita when they heard screaming and shots fired from inside the building at 12:58 a.m., according to Lt. Aaron Moses, Executive Officer of the Wichita Police Department.
Shots were fired inside of the club, according to Moses, where most of the injuries occurred. Seven people were shot, and two others were trampled due to the "mass exodus" of people fleeing from the club, he said.
One of those injured is in critical condition, said Moses, while all the other victims are being treated at local hospitals. The ages of the victims range from 21 to 34-years-old.

Re: Violence and Terrorism News and Discussions
I really wonder how there's so many "psychopaths" that don't fear to ruin their lives, end in prison or even die just to kill a small number of civilians.
I'm ignorant about this but someone knows another country that has the same freedoms as US regarding weapons?
It's almost like it was a bad idea...
