Facebook to review violent content policies

(UDHAYAM, COLOMBO) – A US gunman who shot a grandfather on the street apparently at random and posted the footage on Facebook could be anywhere, say investigators.

The suspect, Steve Stephens, said in another video post that he had killed 13 people and would kill more.

He shot dead 74-year-old Robert Godwin in Ohio as the victim walked home from Easter lunch on Sunday afternoon.

Facebook has launched a review of its procedures after criticism that the footage stayed on the site for hours.

Justin Osofsky, Facebook’s Vice-President of Global Operations, said the first complaint made about the video showing the killing came nearly two hours after it was posted.

But he added: “We know we need to do better.”
