Flag Flies at Half-Staff for Arizona Shooting

The American flag outside Greenwich Town Hall flew at half-staff Monday out of respect for the 19 victims of the shooting spree in Tuscon, Ariz. 

The alleged shooter, Jared L. Loughner, went on a rampage Saturday during a public forum, killing six people and wounding 14, including U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.), who remains in critical condition.

Loughner was charged Sunday with five federal counts including two counts of attempted murder, two counts of first degree murder and one count of attempting to assassinate a member of congress. As of Monday night, he had not yet entered a plea. By lowering the official town hall flag, Greenwich joined towns throughout the nation in remembering the victims of the tragedy.
