| Three Muslims Shot Dead Near University Of North Carolina: Report by 14DUI(m): 1:30pm On Feb 11, 2015 |
A suspected gunman has been charged with the triple murder of Muslim family members near a university campus in North Carolina, officials and local media said early Wednesday. Craig Stephen Hicks, 46, shot dead a second-year dentistry student, his wife, and her sister in an apartment complex near the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, local police said. Police did not release any information about the possible motive for the alleged crime. Deah Barakat, 23, his wife Yusor Mohammad, 21, and her sister Razan Mohammad, 19, were found dead at the scene by officers who responded to reports of gunfire just after 5 p.m. Tuesday in the town 20 miles northwest of Raleigh. The Charlotte Observer reported that all three victims were Muslim. Officials said Hicks had been charged with three counts of first-degree murder and was being held in the Durham County Jail. Officials at the jail told NBC News that he would appear at the in-house courtroom Wednesday morning. Yusor Mohammad planned to start studies at UNC's school of dentistry this fall, and Razan Mohammad was a student at North Carolina State University, according to university and police officials. UNC said it felt "deep sadness" and said its chancellor, Carol L. Folt, would issue a statement. A Facebook group entitled "Our Three Winners" was set up early Wednesday in tribute to the victims. Barakat was raising money for a trip this summer to Turkey, where he planned to provide dental care to Syrian refugees, according to his fundraising page. Following the shooting, scores of people donated money and sent messages of condolence. By 6 a.m. ET Wednesday the page had raised $22,657 — far exceeding its goal to raise $20,000 by the end of July. Source: NBC News online |

vedaxcool:I thought you were joking with that pix up there when you posted it on the other thread this morning. I didn't know it was real. Just read about it some minutes ago. Sad! Didn't hear anything on the news @all. |

Empiree: I was also shocked when I stumbled on the news in Al jazeera yesterday, more Muslims have died in the hands of ISIL than any other religious group, yet Muslims still are suppose to apologize for thiese criminals actions, when Muslims get killed like in the op, there remains a deliberate attempt to stifle the news or make little reference to it. In Burma, the Rohingya group there are being cleansed gradually, but where is the breaking news or 24-7 coverage? Nothing but silence pervades. 87% of U.S. mass shooting are committed by caucasians 13-56 but are never called 'Terrorist 1 Like 1 Share

Honestly, I was about to post this info. It's so pathetic. They have said it's not an hate attack. They said it happened out of a dispute about parking lot. I wonder if the suspect had been a muslim and the victims were non-muslims, the story would have moved into Jupiter. May Allah help us. With all these, it is more obvious that Islam is a true religion of Allah, if not with all the propaganda, the religion should have been eradicated but nah, it keeps growiing. . Alhamdulilah. The truth shall prevail, don't say amen because it's not a prayer, it's a certainty. Salam Alaekum 4 Likes |
