Bird is then believed to have sought medical help at a local hospital for his fragile mental state, only to be turned away.

Very sad for the people of Whitehaven. :-1

I guess we need to wait for all the facts to come in, thankfully it's a rare event here.

It is sad, isn't it.

For the man to go around the place shooting 12 people dead over the course of his 25-odd mile journey, and also injuring 25 more, indicates a very odd derangement.

I am also really surprised that there isn't more comment here from UK posters, as well as others.

I'm not from the UK as you know, but my god, this is just tragic!~

More and more of this is happening the past few years everywhere all over the world, some I think just snap.
Life is just to short for drama.
