According to reports, a mass shooting on Monday night in Río Piedras, Puerto Rico, left six people dead and five wounded. The shooting occurred a day after another shooting on the Martínez Nadal Expressway where two men were shot and killed. The majority of guns in Puerto Rico come from mainland United States, according to a July report from the Miami New Times.

At least four people were shot and killed and at least three people were wounded on Saturday morning in Brooklyn, New York.
That same day, at least two people were wounded during a wedding in Pelham, New Hampshire.
Four people were shot and killed and one critically wounded on Chicago’s Northwest Side.
