Earlier, on October 5, in the American city of Holyoke, Massachusetts, there was a shooting on a bus. It became known that three suspects opened fire in a vehicle as a result of an argument, injuring several people, including a woman in late stages of pregnancy. They managed to hospitalize her, but the child died soon after birth.
