Assesment of News Source: This News Article came from The Washington Post who is a major American daily newspaper source who publishes in Washington, D.C. . They focus more on the national politics and the federal government within their posts. They have a solgan that started appearing on their website that goes "Democracy Dies in Darkness". The news source favors more liberal causes.
Summary of Article: This article is about a shooting incident in Prince William County that left two individuals dead and one severly injured in the hospital. Police arrived at this location within the county which then leads them to being ambushed by gun fire. This leaves the cruiser that they were driving beaten up by gun shots and when the police officers fired back they hit the suspect and detained him. About 15 minutes after this incident, 5 miles away police officers found a veichle hanging over a curb with two individuals shot dead. They are not sure if the two incidents are related but they are continuing to investigate.
Analysis: The author, Dana Hedgpeth, does a great job using logos by reporting what happened with both incidents in with these shootings. She also clearly states how this is an ongoing investigation and leaves a phone number at the end of the article for whoever has anymore information about either incendent to call the number and to share the information with the police.
Opinion: I believe that these two incidents are strangly connected in some way. This opinion my come from me reading too many crime investigation books or watching Hawaii 5-O but there is no way that they can't be related since the two incidents happened so closely with one another, both time and distance. I believe this article was well written and that the author did a great job with reporting and also giving those who have more information to speak up with the phone number at the end.
