A new timeline of the Dayton shooting reveals the gunman knew his sister and friend were in the area before opening fire, but police are divided over whether he intentionally killed his sister

The man who opened fire at a bustling neighborhood in Dayton, Ohio, last weekend left his sister and companion in a bar and went to another nightspot by himself minutes before he got his gun and began shooting, police said Tuesday.

Authorities on Tuesday provided a detailed timeline of the shooting in which 24-year-old Connor Betts used a souped-up assault rifle to fire 41 shots in about 30 seconds, killing his sister and eight others. Dayton Police Chief Richard Biehl clarified that 17 people were injured by gunfire, three more than a previous count, and more than two dozen were injured overall, including people hurt in the stampede.

Ok I'm lost. What is all the talk about his sibling transgender ? Sorry been off Twitter few days.

Brother. Do better, CNN

He killed his own Sister? Murderer!

Either way, even if he knew, or didnt know his sister was there....killing is killing. And you have to pay for you did by killing them.

In the process of open firing civilians, he killed his sister. Though he knew his sister were among the people, he did it anyway. It's not known how long he retained common sense. What actually triggered his choice of time of open fire. May be he was premeditated.

Not at all, he wanted to show off to trump that he could kill people so he proved that he was ready to join trump gun lovers club.

He killed his sister as reported by CNN.

The 'brother' was actually his biological sister. The sister was confused and warped. Thank you CNN for believing that there is no such thing as transgender.

Police are divided? WTF does that supposed to mean? He was a leftist extremist that was extremely intolerant of other people, even his own sister. Stop trying to apologize for the DNC and their intolerant rhetoric. You're just mad because you want to pin this on the POTUS.

How are you still misgendering the shooter’s brother? This comes off as intentional, and it is shoddy journalism.

Brother! Damn CNN you can do better!

Wow look what I found online!! Why isn’t CNN reporting this?!!

Dayton Gunman’s Friend Bought Body Armor, Authorities AllegeFederal prosecutors allege Ethan Kollie, a friend of Connor Betts, purchased body armor and gun accessories that were used in the mass shooting this month in Dayton, Ohio. Mr. Kollie has been charged with lying on federal firearms forms. Nice story. How about putting out the information on Connor's very serious issues which his high school administrators and the police knew about. But still allowed him to be in JROTC program where he had weapons training. Which gun laws that “would have saved the day if they were in place” would have been circumvented here? Friends don’t let friends buy guns, and a vest, and a 100 round mag.... without being suspicious about use?! Which law will fix this? He lied... This needs a multi-prong approach to prevention. Family, friends, cops, schools need to speak up when troubled kid in their sphere!
