Raleigh, North Carolina was witness to the country's 25th mass shooting of the year when a teen gunman opened fire on his brother and residents in his neighborhood, killing at least 5 and injuring 2 others.
Authorities have identified 15-year-old Austin Thompson as the gunman behind the rampage. They have also identified the deceased victims as off-duty officer Gabriel Torres, 29, Nicole Conners, 52, Mary Marshall, 35, Susan Karnatz, 49, and Austin's older brother James Thompson, 16.
“We’re standing with you in this moment of unspeakable agony,” Gov. Roy Cooper said during Friday’s press conference. “No one should feel this fear in their communities. No one. As policymakers, we cannot, and we will not, turn away from what has happened here.”
