gun violence

Police say a two-year-old has died of a gunshot wound sustained in a Winston-Salem home.

The Mexican government sued U.S. gun-makers and distributors in federal court for damages caused by illicit firearms. Experts say it's a long shot but the move could ramp up pressure on the U.S.

Some communities in the city have been experiencing a noticeable rise in shootings. They're also grappling with strained relations with the police.

With the number of shootings on the rise across the Triad, local law enforcement agencies are searching for ways to reverse this trend.

Winston-Salem police say people who know anything about a rash of shootings over the weekend need to tell police what they know to help stop the violence. 

The weekend saw a spate of mass shootings in cities across the country, leaving at least three people dead and 30 wounded.

One small startup in Portland, Ore., is helping place former gang members and others involved in gun violence into well-paying green energy jobs.

Although they're still a statistical anomaly, one explanation for the latest uptick in killings is that with the COVID-19 pandemic, perpetrators have had time to plan their attacks, one expert says.

We're just 18 weeks into 2021, and already the U.S. has experienced 194 shootings in which four or more people were shot or killed, excluding the shooter.
