The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Joint Terrorism Task Force is investigating a shooting on West Sixth Street that killed three, including the gunman, and injured at least 14 early Sunday morning. Host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by executive producer Eva Ruth Moravec to walk through the details of the incident, what local leaders have said, what we know about the suspect, and how you can help. Plus, we talked to Zo Qadri, the Austin City Council member who represents downtown, about what he’s focused on in light of the shooting. And just a note, this episode touches on violence.
