The 18-year-old gunman who shot and killed three people in Farmington, New Mexico, on Monday had struggles with mental health that were recently exacerbated by his parents’ split and his departure from his high school wrestling team, according to friends and family.
Three people were killed and six others wounded, including two police officers, when Beau Wilson opened fire in Brookside Park in Farmington — a city 50 miles outside of New Mexico’s four-corners state border with Colorado, Arizona and Utah.
Those fatally shot in Monday’s mass shooting were identified as Shirley Voita, 79, Gwendolyn Schofield, 97, and Schofield’s daughter, Melody Ivie, 73. All three women were in cars when the gunfire erupted.
