Gun violence in the United States has declined during President Donald Trump’s first year back in office compared to President Joe Biden’s final year, according to new data from the Gun Violence Archive (GVA). The numbers, released Thursday in a post on X, reveal decreases in overall gun deaths, gun injuries, and even incidents categorized as “mass shootings” under GVA’s broad definition.
At least 10 people were killed, and an unknown number injured, in a school shooting at Risbergska School in Orebro, Sweden, on Tuesday. Police have not confirmed whether the shooter is among the casualties but believe the suspect was transported to a hospital. Authorities are urging residents to avoid the area as investigations continue.
