Are we talking about the ones that make the news because a dozen people are killed? Or are we talking about the situations where someone shoots 5 people who all live so it doesn't really make a big story outside of local news?
If it's the big one, it probably won't happen for several months (, but if you're talking about these smaller incidents, there's a decent chance that it's happened since this thread was created.
Tough to do. Some say it has to be 4 deaths, others say 4 injured (which is more fair in my opinion).
This one got little attention outside of Maryland

Guy shot up his work, 3 killed and 3 injured. Then drove to Delaware and shot someone else.
Mass shooting in terms of the workplace shooting, but it wasn't really reported nationally.
