The Charleston police released this picture of the suspect who is believed to have shot dead nine people at a church last night. The shooter, is believed to be a white male, is currently at large. Police described the shooter as a clean-shaven white man, approximately 21-years-old wearing a grey sweatshirt, blue jeans and Timberland-style boots.


Nine persons, including a state senator, were killed on Thursday when a white gunman opened fire inside a historic black church in Charleston in the US state of South Carolina, in what police called a "hate crime".
