Justice Department charges man accused of selling gun to Old Dominion shooter

The Justice Department has charged a man who authorities say sold a gun to the Old Dominion University shooter despite the gunman’s previous conviction in a terrorism case. Kenya Chapman was charged Friday in connection to the sale of the weapon to Mohamed Bailor Jalloh, a former Army National Guard member who yelled “Allahu akbar” before opening fire at the Virginia school on Thursday. One person was killed and two others were injured in the shooting Thursday. Jalloh was barred from possessing a gun after pleading guilty in 2016 to attempting to aid the Islamic State extremist group.
