The women were shot dead outside a church in Ames moments after Joe Biden urged Congress to ban assault weapons
A man has shot and killed two women in the parking lot of a church in Iowa and then turned the gun on himself, police said, adding three more dead to the national toll from a series of recent shootings that have rocked the United States.
The Iowa shooting took place on Thursday shortly after president Joe Biden delivered a major address on gun violence in the wake of mass shootings in Buffalo, New York; Uvalde, Texas, and Tulsa, Oklahoma, in recent weeks.
Meanwhile another shooting on Thursday wounded two people attending a burial at a cemetery in Racine, Wisconsin.
