The antisemitic gunman who opened fire on a Pittsburgh synagogue on Saturday morning, killing eight and injuring six more, has been named as 46-year-old Robert Bowers.
Bowers opened fire at the Tree of Life Congregation Synagogue in the Squirrel Hill area of Pittsburgh shortly before 10am.
He burst through the synagogue's doors and opened fire on a Shabbat service congregation on the main floor where around 40 to 50 people had gathered, shouting 'all Jews must die!'.
After killing three people on the main floor, he went downstairs, where the New Light congregation was gathering in the basement, and opened fire there.
He murdered four people there then fled upstairs where, on the third floor, he exchanged fire with SWAT teams and injured four police officers. Dor Hadash, a third, smaller group, was gathered in the rabbi's study to the side of the Tree of Life' s congregation.
After being injured himself in the crossfire, Bowers surrendered to police. He is now in custody.
Among the six people injured were four police officers and two congregants who are clinging to life in the hospital.
