Police arrested the suspect who gunned down 5 people at a Burlington, Washington shopping mall north of Seattle on Friday.
Arcan Cetin, 20, walked into a Macy’s at the Cascade shopping mall and opened fire, killing 4 women. A man later died at a hospital.
24 hours later, a patrol officer spotted Cetin walking about a mile from his home in Oak Harbor, Washington.
Island County Sheriff’s Lt. Mike Hawley said he recognized Cetin immediately from the store surveillance footage.
“I literally hit my brakes, did a quick turn, I jumped out,” said Hawley. “We both jumped out with our guns, and he just froze.”
Cetin immigrated from Turkey a few years ago. He has been arrested for felonies at least 6 times. Yet he is a “permanent legal resident” of this country. A legal resident can still be deported back to their country of origin if they commit a felony on U.S. soil.
Cetin reportedly stole his father’s .22 gauge hunting rifle to use in the attack. The rifle was found on a counter top in the cosmetics department, where 52-year-old Shayla Martin was working toward her retirement before she was killed.
The Seattle Times reports that the youngest victim was 16-year-old cancer survivor Sarai Lara.
During a hearing in December for an assault charge, a judge ordered that Cetin could not possess any weapons.
Cetin was also previously arrested on 2 prior assault charges and a DUI.
“I don’t know what his motivations were. I don’t know what his motivations were to do this,” said Mount Vernon police Lt. Chris Cammock, referring to the 4th act of terrorism on American soil in less than two weeks.
Not one news outlet reported that Cetin shouted “Allahu Akbar” before he gunned down 5 innocent victims.
But the police and the liberal news media were quick to spread misinformation that the shooter called out a “woman’s name” before he opened fire. Even when they were corrected, that he actually shouted “Allahu Akbar,” the media still hasn’t reported it.
The media also reported that the police were searching for a “Hispanic” male.
Now that they know he is an immigrant from Turkey, not one media outlet has reported he is middle eastern. Turkey shares its southern border with Syria, the home base of ISIS.
The media can not be trusted to report the news without bias. This is the main reason why Donald Trump will be elected president in November.
