Kenyan Mall Shooting

African officials have recently obtained four suspects in the Kenyan mall shooting. The shooting happened on Saturday, September 21.  The four suspects are thought to be a part of the Somali terrorist group Al-Shabaab.  The foursome killed 67 people and injured 21. There trial is set for today and most people are hoping for life without parole. so many families have been affected by the shooting. Not just the families of lost ones and wounded but all of Africa is affected by this incident. I really think it is terrible what happened, what do you make of this tragedy?http://www.nytimes.com/video/world/africa/100000002459807/timeline-of-the-kenya-mall-shooting.html

    I also think it is terrible what happened. If that happened near me i would probably not go into a mall for a long time. I fell bad for the families that had to experience this and i would probably be scared for life. have the guys that did this been arrested.
