The Tucson shooting took place on January 8, 2011, at a public event held by US Representative Gabrielle Giffords in Tucson, Arizona. Jared Lee Loughner, a 22-year-old, opened fire on the crowd, killing six people and injuring fourteen others, including Giffords, who suffered a gunshot wound to the head.
The incident sparked a national debate on gun control laws and mental health in the United States, with President Barack Obama and other politicians calling for stricter regulations. Loughner was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
The victims of the Tucson shooting included federal judge John Roll, 9-year-old Christina-Taylor Green, and four other individuals, who were all civilians attending the event. Many survivors of the shooting struggled with physical and emotional injuries in the aftermath of the incident.
