America is in mourning following two mass shootings in less than 24 hours which have killed at least 29 people, along with one of the gunmen. Federal prosecutors are treating yesterday's massacre at a Walmart store in El Paso as domestic terrorism, with the suspect, 21 year old Patrick Crusius, linked to an online racist manifesto. He's been charged with capital murder and prosecutors are seeking the death penalty. In Dayton Ohio, police are still investigating the motive behind a shooting in a popular nightclub district, which left nine victims dead and at least 27 injured. The gunman, Connor Betts, was killed by police within a minute of opening fire. His 22 year old sister Megan is among the dead.
