With the rise of far-right extremism in the US, can law enforcement agencies do enough to stop the next El Paso or Pittsburgh?
In early August, 21-year-old Patrick Crusius stormed a Walmart in El Paso, Texas- a city on the US-Mexico border- and gunned down 21 shoppers, injuring several more.
During the week after the El Paso attack and another mass shooting in Dayton, Ohio, the Federal Bureau of Investigation said it received 38,000 calls about potential incidents on the agency’s tip line. That marked a 70-percent increase from the bureau’s weekly average of tips. The following day, police in Florida’s Daytona Beach arrested 25-year-old Tristan Scott Wix, who had reportedly harboured a lengthy fascination with mass shootings.
In Reardon’s home last weekend, authorities found weapons, a gas mask, a bulletproof vest and anti-Semitic literature, among other items. The same day authorities announced Lin’s arrest, law enforcement revealed the arrest of 38-year-old truck driver Thomas McVicker for planning a mass shooting at a Tennessee church.
