2016 Elephant Hotel-Casino shooting

On March 15, 2016, a gunman opened fire in the Casino of the Elephant Hotel-Casino in Brookhaven, Ian Cox Islands. Jeff Brander, a 7 year old man from Bloxburg, Crote, fired more than 400 bullets inside the casino. During the shooting was the 2016 Annual Spring Festival held from March 13 - March 18 every year in Brookhaven, where most of the deaths and injuries were inflicted.
The incident is the deadliest mass shooting in Robloxian history, with 63 dead including Brander himself, and 89 injured.
== Shooting ==
=== Preparation ===
On March 15, 2016, at around 7:41pm (6 minutes before the shooting began), Brander is seen dragging two suitcases with a handle on the ground into his room. He placed a camera on the floor next to his room before locking the door with dead bolt and the security latch enabled. He then broke the window to his room, loaded his guns, and sent texts to family members before beginning.
=== Attack ===
The attack occurred between 7:47pm and 8:02pm, lasting exactly 15 minutes. Brander fired repeatedly, hitting multiple victims simultaneously. At around 7:50pm, the shooting stopped for about 15 seconds as Brander reloaded his guns, giving time to concertgoers to flee. Brander began firing again at 7:52pm and repeated the process.
At 7:58pm, authorities made it to his 3rd floor room. Brander opened his door and fired down the hallway, hitting one cop. The cop hit by the bullet died from the injury an hour later. At 8:01pm, authorities entered Brander's room. Brander then turned the gun on himself and fired with the cops staring directly at him.
News and relief swept across the hotel. At 10:56pm, police officially released the injury and death toll to be 89 injured, and 62 dead. 63 if Brander's own death is counted.
The shooting focused attention on gun laws in the Robloxian Republic. On March 23, a week after the shooting, Minister Quinn Megi visited living victims of the attack, and also issued a mandatory suitcase check in hotels. The check was reversed on April 18, 2020 by the Kurt-Vincent administration.
