Austin Thompson, The 15-Year-Old Who Caused Raleigh Mass shooting
Austin Roger Thompson, aka Austin Thompson (born in 2007), is a 15-years-old school student from North Carolina, America, who became the cause of death of 5 innocent people, including one of his family members and a police officer. According to sources, Roger ran on the streets of Hedingham with a shotgun in his hand and targeted whoever he came across.
When the residents of Hedingham heard gunshots, they called 911 and described the whole scenario. Later, police came and gunned down the teenager. Police revealed that during the crossfire, Austin got fatally injured and was taken to WakeMed. It is yet to be confirmed if Thompson got wounded by his own shot or the bullets fired by the police.
Raleigh Mass Shooting
An East Raleigh community is in shock and disbelief as investigators now look up for a motive behind Thursday’s mass shooting where five lives were violently taken away. The 15-year-old suspect began shooting in a residential neighborhood and continued on a popular walking trail before being taken into custody.
Those who lost their life include 52-year-old Nicole Conners, a high school student James Thompson (16), the mother of three; Susan Karnatz (49), a navy veteran Mary Marshall (34); and 29-year-old off-duty police officer Gabriel Torres.
The teenage suspect continues to be in grave condition with life-threatening injuries. The question remains as to whether those were self-inflicted or not. Law enforcement officials later revealed that the suspect’s juvenile records have not turned up any criminal history.
