A gunman shot three people, including two first responders, at the Tri-State Fair & Rodeo in Texas before he was shot and wounded by sheriff’s deputies, authorities said.

Just before 11 p.m. local time Monday (12 a.m. ET Tuesday), a man opened fire on Potter County deputies working off-duty at the fair in Amarillo, Potter County Sheriff Brian Thomas said.

Thomas said the “male suspect opened fire on the deputies, striking a deputy and an off-duty firefighter, also working at the fair, and a bystander.” Deputies returned fire, wounding the suspect.

The deputy, firefighter and bystander were transported to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries, authorities said. The gunman was taken to the hospital with injuries that were described as life-threatening.

Thomas did not identify any of the victims or the suspect. He did not offer a motive for the shooting, which is being investigated by the Texas Rangers.

Amarillo is about 365 miles northwest of Dallas.

  1. So here we go again with a very vague report – what a joke – about another apparent FBI GUN-CONTROL FALSE FLAG! No city mentioned, no fair mentioned, no description of the suspect, so on and so forth; just take our word for it WOKE-FOLK! Psst, I’ll let yo on in a little secret, these (D) emons want your guns so that they have total control over you FOOLS, BAA, BAA, BAA…

  2. Some folks will never be convinced….even by logic. USA has tons of deaths each year from gun incidents.
    Japan has less than a dozen because they have very strict control over who can own a gun.

  3. Greetings! I know this is kinda off topic but I’d figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest writing a blog article or vice-versa? My website discusses a lot of the same subjects as yours and I think we could greatly benefit from each other. If you happen to be interested feel free to shoot me an email. I look forward to hearing from you! Awesome blog by the way!
