Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Police have said the teenage gunman who wounded three people at a college in Greece and killed himself had warned of the attack hours earlier on an Internet posting.
Police confirm the man seen on the posting on the popular social networking site was the 19-year-old gunman. A note included on the posting says he felt "nothing but rejection and contempt" for those around him. The posting included photographs of him posing with weapons.
He shot himself in the head and died after opening fire at the vocational training college in western Athens earlier today and died in hospital several hours later.
Police and Health Ministry officials say a student was shot in the chest and seriously wounded, and two men suffered lighter injuries.
