Loughner Indicted on New Charges; Details of Shooting Video Released

HeadlineJan 20, 2011

A federal grand jury has indicted alleged Arizona gunman Jared Loughner over the attack that killed six people and wounded 13 others, including Democratic Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. Loughner was charged for the attempted murder of Giffords and two of her staffers. Prosecutors say he will face additional charges in the coming weeks, including murder. The indictment comes amidst the disclosure the Tucson shooting was captured entirely on a security camera. Unreleased footage reportedly shows Loughner shooting Giffords and several others at close range. It also shows federal judge John Roll was killed after stepping in front of one of Giffords’ staffers when the shooting began. The staffer survived the attack.
