Police in Oklahoma has said that a man armed with a rifle and a handgun has killed four people inside a medical building in Tulsa, before he was fatally shot, in the latest of a series of mass shootings to rattle the United States.
Police arrived at the St. Francis Hospital campus three minutes after receiving a call about the shooting and followed the sound of gunfire up to the building’s second floor, officials told reporters.
The White House said President Joe Biden had been briefed on the shooting and offered support to state and local officials in Tulsa, a city of some 411,000 people that sits around 100 miles northeast of the capital Oklahoma City.
