Witnesses say someone struck a gunman with a chair after the shooter said “free Palestine” and opened fire while a wedding was taking place in a private US country club. Witnesses at the scene said the shootings took place in a restaurant adjacent to a wedding that was taking place. He said he heard the shooter say “the children are safe” and “free Palestine” and appeared to be targeting someone. Sophie Flabouris, another witness who was at the scene, told WCVB-TV that someone hit the suspect over the head with a chair to subdue him. And all of a sudden we heard ‘pop, pop, pop, pop, pop’.
