With an incident like this, the concern doesn’t always end just because someone was apprehended. While that’s important, there sometimes needs to be an investigation into the location where the incident happened. Instances of violence aren’t always predictable or preventable, but some locations see enough events that they need to improve security at their establishment. Hopefully authorities are including that in their investigation so that any needed improvements at this business are made as soon as possible.
