Tucson Shooting: Gabrielle Giffords Shot, John Roll Killed
Congresswoman, Gabrielle Giffords, reportedly suffered a gunshot wound to the head and District Judge John Roll has died when a crazy man carrying a pistol with extended magazine started shooting while she was hosting an event at a Safeway grocery store in Tucson, Arizona on Saturday (January 8).

The 40 year-old Democrat was quickly taken to the hospital for emergency surgery. Giffords is currently out of surgery, but her doctors expect her to recover. A hospital surgeon revealed that she was shot one time in the head, through and through, adding, “We cannot tell what kind of recovery, but I’m about as optimistic as it can get in this situation.”
Pima County Sheriff’s Department, Richard J. Kastigar, claimed 18 people were injured (9 of them were allegedly rushed into surgery) and at least 5 people, including a 9 year-old girl, were killed by the young gunman, who has been identified as Jared Lee Loughner.
The suspect claims he acted alone and has revealed a motive for the brutal attack. This is absolutely crazy and unexplainable. This lunatic must be harshly punished for his crimes.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, Judge John Roll’s family and with all the victims of the Tucson shooting and their families.
