November 30, 2021 – We are saddened and horrified by the gun violence that occurred this afternoon at Oxford High School, which left three innocent people dead, and others injured. We are grateful to the law enforcement officials who acted swiftly, within five minutes, to apprehend the 15-year-old suspect.
As we continue to learn what led to today’s shooting, JCRC/AJC continues to call on our leaders to take the necessary steps to reduce gun violence, which, as we have seen so tragically today, continues to be a grave public health epidemic.
May the memories of those lost be for a blessing, and we pray for a speedy recovery for those injured by today’s violence.
