2018 Mass Killings in the United States

[Paul in Saudi]

The Philadelphia incident has been removed as police just announced they think there were four killers.

Events: 55
Killed: 289

 

[Paul in Saudi]

The little girl who was wounded on the 18th has just died. This changes the list to:
57) 18 December 2018 Miami-Dade County FL, 4* killed (shot) (https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/miami-dade/article223177860.html)
58) 19 December 2018 Plant City FL, 4* killed (shot) (https://apnews.com/c583d3ddba554c0b...Twitter&utm_medium=AP&utm_campaign=SocialFlow)


Events: 58
Killed: 317

Shortly before this awful year ends, I will put the entire list here. This will give people a chance to check the math, I often mess that up. Once I arrive back in Saudi Arabia I will publish the official version on Reddit r/lists.

 

[Kyriakos]

So, more dead than in previous years?

 

[Paul in Saudi]

I will issue a recapitulation by year with the formal publication. Honestly, I am on vacation until 2 January and would rather not give this a lot of attention.

 

[Paul in Saudi]

Here is the draft final list. The Commissioner is posting it now as he will be in the air for the next few days. He welcomes your comments and any corrections to his math skills. The final list will end up on Reddit r/lists.

Mass killings in the United States.
Four or more dead (including suicides)
By a single killer
By any criminal means

[plarq]

This year has more deaths but the maximum number of kill count is smaller. Seems like more widespread reports than previous.
