Police said a fourth victim has died a day after a shooter opened fire at an Arkansas grocery store, wounding nine others and riddling cars with bullet holes as panicked bystanders scrambled for cover.

The dead were identified as Shirley Taylor, 62, Callie Weems, 23, Roy Sturgis, 50, and Ellen Shrum, 81 — “all civilians,” according to the statement.

The wounded range in age between 20 and 65, police said. Four were still hospitalized, including a woman who was in critical condition.

Police said the suspect is Travis Eugene Posey, 44, of New Edinburg, and he will be charged with four counts of capital murder.

Police have not released a motive. A media briefing to update about the shooting was announced for 2 p.m. Sunday.

    News articles are full of people dumbfounded about what to do and also thanking God for protecting them.

    How fucking diluted are people. Enact common sense gun laws. Don’t worship the God who allowed 4 people to get murdered while grocery shopping.
