In 30 seconds
- The Texas Department of Public Safety says one victim was killed and 10 others were injured in Friday’s Midland shooting.
- The revised DPS count raises the injury total from earlier accounts that reported nine injured or hospitalised people.
- DPS says no law-enforcement officers were injured.
- DPS says the Texas Rangers are investigating at the request of the Midland Police Department.
The Texas Department of Public Safety (Texas state law-enforcement and public-safety agency) released the latest official casualty count for the Midland shooting. Midland (city in West Texas, part of the Permian Basin oil region) was the site of the Friday attack. The Texas Rangers (state investigative division within DPS, founded in the 19th century and now handling major criminal investigations) are leading the inquiry at Midland police’s request. Midland Memorial Hospital (regional hospital serving Midland and surrounding West Texas communities) treated shooting patients, according to earlier hospital-linked reporting. The Associated Press (US news agency) is carrying the revised count in its latest report.
Background
US mass-shooting casualty counts are often revised after the first police and hospital briefings as agencies distinguish between people treated at hospitals, people hurt at the scene and officers or bystanders exposed to danger. In the 2019 Odessa-Midland mass shooting, officials also adjusted and clarified details as the investigation developed. In this case, earlier reporting on Friday’s Midland attack had centred on one person killed and nine injured or hospitalised; the Texas DPS statement now provides the higher official injury count and says the Rangers are handling the investigation.
