Hospital gunman shoots mother then himself

Hospital gunman shoots mother than himself


Today, a man upset over his mothers medical condition, shot and wounded a doctor before shooting his mother and then himself.  This all occurred in Baltimore at Johns Hopkins Hospital.  The shooter Mr. Davis, was at the hospital checking on his mother and asking questions about her condition.  Evidently he got some information that he didn't agree with so he pulled out a gun and shot the doctor then went to his mothers room and shot her then himself.

I wonder why they do not have metal detectors at hospitals?

I am not sure what the mothers condition was, but I am pretty sure that killing her wasn't the best treatment that she could have gotten.

This article was pretty disturbing in the sense that a person would shoot and try to kill a doctor that is trying to treat this persons parent.  It is fortunate that the doctor did not suffer a fatal gunshot wound and he will survive.  I would imagine that he, along with many other hospital staff will probably require some psychiatric help following this event.
