Five people have died, and nine more have been injured, after a 25-year-old opened fire at a bank in Kentucky. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reversed a decision to sack his Defence Minister over objections to his radical judicial reforms.


CNN reports Louisville shooter Connor Sturgeon was notified that he was going to be terminated from Old National Bank in Louisville, Kentucky, according to a law enforcement source familiar with the investigation. 


Sturgeon wrote a note for his parents and a friend indicating that he was going to shoot at the bank, the source said. 


It is not clear whether that note was on paper or emailed, or whether it was seen before the incident or after, according to the source. 


The shooting was live-streamed on Instagram and has been taken down. Police are in possession of the video, according to the source.
