Shooter in Cincinnati; Mia Murphy
On September 6, 2018, Omar Santa Perez had shot and killed 3 people in 4 minutes and 28 seconds. The killings of the three men were said to be unrelated, all on their way to work. Prudhvi Raj Kandepi, Luis Calderón, Richard Newcomer, and Brian Sarver were the names of the three male victims that didn't make it. Whitney Austin is a 37 year old mother who had survived after being shot 12 times. Omar had disguised himself to look just like any other person going to work, but he wasn't any other person. He had walked in to the Fifth Third Lobby with a 9 mm handgun in his bag, with a total of 250 bullets. Police officers were able to stop the shooting by taking him down.
