This is a list of known mass shootings in the United States that have occurred since 1966. Mass shootings are incidents involving multiple victims of firearm-related violence. The precise inclusion criteria are disputed, and there is no broadly accepted definition.[1][2]

The FBI, USA Today, and The Washington Post amongst other law enforcement and mainstream media considers 4+ shot and killed in one incident, at one location, at roughly the same time to be a mass shooting.[3][4] The Gun Violence Archive, a nonprofit research group that tracks shootings and their characteristics in the United States, defines a mass shooting as an incident in which four or more people, excluding the perpetrator(s), are shot in one location at roughly the same time.[5] The Congressional Research Service narrows that definition further, only considering what it defines as "public mass shootings", and only considering victims as those who are killed, excluding any victims who survive.[2] Mother Jones use similar definitions, with acknowledging that their definition "is a conservative measure of the problem", as many rampages with fewer fatalities occur.[4][6] The crowdsourced Mass Shooting Tracker project uses a definition even looser than the Gun Violence Archive's definition: four people shot in one incident regardless of the circumstances.[7]

Larger documentation of mass shootings in the United States has occurred through independent and scholarly studies such as the Stanford University Mass Shootings in America Data Project.[4][8]

Definitions[edit]

There are varying definitions of a mass shooting:

FBI, USA Today, The Washington Post: 4+ shot and killed in one incident, at one location, at roughly the same time.[3][4]
Mother Jones: 3+ shot and killed in one incident, excluding the perpetrator(s), at a public place, excluding gang-related killings.[9]
Vox, Gun Violence Archive: 4+ shot in one incident, excluding the perpetrator(s), at one location, at roughly the same time (the Mass Shooting Tracker the same but including the shooter) .[10][11][7][5]

Only shootings that have Wikipedia articles of their own are included in this list. Detailed lists of shootings can be found per-year at their respective pages.
