Texas Supreme Court Rules In 2017 Mass Shooting

Austin (WBAP/KLIF) – The Texas Supreme Court has ruled survivors and relatives of those who were killed in a 2017 mass shooting at a church cannot sue a sporting goods chain for selling the rifle used in the attack. The court threw out four lawsuits against Academy Sports and Outdoors that alleged a San Antonio area store negligently sold the rifle to Devin Kelley in 2016. Kelley killed more than two dozen people with that rifle when he opened fire at the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs. Kelley later killed himself during a chase after the shooting.
