Police say 16 people died in two small German towns including the shooter who is believed to have taken his own life. Most of these victims were female and today they are all being remembered in what Germany's chancellor 5 is calling " a national day of mourning".


Back here in the US that other shooting that just has happened-- the man who killed ten people in Alabama. Well, he was once a police officer.
