  "account": "Eight people, including two children, were killed in a mass shooting at a home in Erie, Pennsylvania on Friday afternoon. The incident began when witnesses reported seeing a man firing a gun before he entered the residence, according to the Erie News Now. Two women were found dead on the street. Upon arriving, police encountered a barricaded gunman inside the home, who then exchanged gunfire with law enforcement. Further victims were discovered upon entry, along with the gunman, who sustained a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The Erie mayor's office confirmed the nine fatalities in a statement released on Saturday. Police Chief Rick Lorah expressed that the loss of life \"cannot be adequately expressed\" and that police would refrain from speculating about a motive. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro voiced his administration's support and shared his grief for the family and community. A press conference by the mayor is scheduled for Saturday afternoon.",
  "summary": "A man has shot and killed eight people, including two children, at a home in the US state of Pennsylvania before appearing to take his own life.",
