All victims are expected to recover, Columbus Police Chief Freddie Blackmon said Sunday. The chief added that police found no evidence that [the suspect] knew any of his victims.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBasically, he explained throughout his life, specifically white males had taken from him, and also what he described as \u2018military-looking white males\u2019 had taken from him,\u201d Detective Brandon Lockhart testified on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>Law enforcement officials arrested the suspect over the weekend after the three shootings took place over a span of 20 hours.<\/p>\n<p>Police <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CQCuyW5tYvA\/\">allege<\/a> that the suspect committed the following acts during that period of time:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>06-11-21 at approximately 2015 hours, he shot an individual multiple times at 1400 Whitewater Ave, Phenix City.<\/li>\n<li>06-11-21 at approximately 2215 hours, he shot 3 persons in the area of 1032 Broadway in Columbus.<\/li>\n<li>06-12-21 at approximately 1404 hours, he shot a person at 3rd Avenue and 4th Street in Columbus.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Police say that the suspect was charged with the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Aggravated Assault<\/li>\n<li>Possession of a Firearm During the Commission of a Crime.<\/li>\n<li>Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon<\/li>\n<li>Theft by Receiving Stolen Property (firearm)<\/li>\n<li>Additional warrants will be obtained for:\n<ul>\n<li>Aggravated Assault (3 counts)<\/li>\n<li>Possession of a Firearm during the Commission of a Crime<\/li>\n<li>Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cUptown is safe. These recent shooting incidents that occurred in the last 24 hours have been isolated incidents,\u201d Columbus Police Chief Freddie Blackmon said. \u201cWe have not received any information that would indicate there was anyone else involved in these shooting incidents other than the person we have in custody.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>EDITOR\u2019S NOTE:<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/27329\/why-daily-wire-will-no-longer-publish-names-or-ben-shapiro\">Recent studies<\/a> suggest that \u201cmedia coverage of mass shootings can have a significant impact on the psyches of potential mass shooters \u2014 that such potential mass shooters have a cognitive craving for attention, which they know they will receive for committing atrocities.\u201d For this reason, The Daily Wire no longer publishes names and images of mass shooters as it has become increasingly clear in recent years that \u201cthe value of public knowledge regarding specific names and photographs of mass shooters is significantly outweighed by the possibility of encouraging more mass shootings.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
