    the Veterans Cemetery on 72/896 major police presence due to a shooting. Thinking it is a veteran who took his own life with a buddy / family members grave. Cecil County Sheriffs are assisting

    One has been transported to the hospital.

    Does that mean one was minor injury or a miss, or that one was DOA?

    Hoping that douchebag was the only fatality.

    The headline has been update to 2 dead.

    And... I saw someone on Twitter say the elderly couple were "visiting the grave of their son." I can't find any news source for that quote, so I'm not sure how reliable it is.

    "2 dead, including shooter"

    The headline hasn't changed since it was posted. Still shows 1 victim deceased.


    The 85-year-old woman was pronounced dead at the scene while her her 86-year-old husband remained in critical condition at a local hospital.



    EDIT: That headline still hasn't changed, but later articles are now stating both shooting victims and the shooter are all deceased.

    An elderly white couple visiting their son’s grave is assassinated by a black man. Nothing to see here. No media outrage. No “lynching” headlines. No athletes tweeting that the couple was hunted. This goes on all the time and I’m f***ing fed up. When will people wake up and demand the truth? The media really is our enemy.
