Biden turns 80 - Climate reparations fund - World Cup begins

1. Summary
   Five are dead and at least 25 are wounded following a mass shooting at Club Q, a Colorado Springs club catering to the LGBT community. The gunman began his attack with a "long rifle" around midnight. Unconfirmed reports also suggest the gunman wore body armor and used an AR-15. Multiple guns were recovered from the scene. The shooting ended when the suspect was subdued by at least two unidentified club patrons.
   
   Club Q was founded in 2002 and is one of Colorado Springs' oldest LGBTQ clubs. An "all-ages musical drag brunch" was scheduled for Sunday in honor of the Transgender Day of Remembrance. It is currently unclear whether the shooting was intentionally timed to disrupt the drag brunch.
   
   Police are still working to determine a motive in the shooting, but Michael Allen, a local district attorney, said the case is being investigated as a possible hate crime. A man with the suspect's name was arrested last year for threatening to attack his mother with a homemade bomb. Officials have yet to confirm if that person is the shooting suspect.
