Today, A man named Jiverly Voong committed a tragedy which will go down as one of the worse in a long time. Jiverly, also known as Linh Phat Voong, a 41 year old man from Johnson City, NY, originally from Vietnam murdered at least 13 people and injured several other today in Binghamton New York.
Earlier today Mr Jivery Voong walked into the Binghamton New York American Civic Association building with a rifle. He took shot and killed over a dozen innocent people, and took several others hostage. Estimates have it that Voong took over 40 people hostage, and the damage could have been worse had the Swat team not acted when they did.. Jivery is an alias he goes by, but it is speculated his real first name is Linh Phat. When authorities called a home of Juvery’s sister, the women said that she thinks he was a victim and not the actual shooter, pointing out that he didn’t have a gun. Authority seem pretty certain however that Mr Voong was the gunman, who later killed himself with a single gunshot wound to the head. Binghamton is a medium sized town in of 47,000 people located in Northern New York state, about 140 miles northwest of New York City. The town is obviously shaken by this terrible crime, and will take years to recover.
