Add links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Sro23 (talk | contribs) at 02:25, 26 April 2016 (murderpedia.org is not a reliable source, see WP:SPS. Use the actual news story, court case, etc. instead please.). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This section of the list of rampage killers contains those cases that occurred in the Americas.

This section does not include school massacres, workplace killings, hate crimes, or mass murders that took place primarily in a domestic environment, like familicides, which are covered in their own categories. Cases where the primary motive for the murders was to facilitate or cover up another felony, like robbery, are also excluded.

A rampage killer has been defined as follows:

A rampage involves the (attempted) killing of multiple persons least partly in public space by a single physically present perpetrator using (potentially) deadly weapons in a single event without any cooling-off period.[1]

This list should contain every case with at least one of the following features:

  • Rampage killings with 6 or more dead (excluding the perpetrator)
  • Rampage killings with at least 4 people killed and a double digit number of victims (dead plus injured)
  • Rampage killings with at least 12 victims (dead plus injured)

All abbreviations used in the table are explained below.
