At least 31 killed in US weekend mass shootings

Dayton, Ohio, and El Paso, Texas, are reeling after a pair of mass shootings left at least 31 people dead across the two cities.

President Trump and first lady Melania Trump plan to visit both cities on Wednesday.

We're wrapping up our live coverage, but here's what we know so far about the two attacks:

El Paso:

Dayton:

Dayton shooting victim Lois Oglesby was out for the first time with some friends after having a baby when she was shot and killed Sunday, a spokesperson for the family told CNN. 

Cherish Cronmiller, president and CEO of Miami Valley Community Action Partnership (MVCAP), said Oglesby, who also went by Lola, was going back to work at a daycare. She leaves behind two children, 7-year-old Hannah and 2-month-old Reigh, Cronmiller added. 

Oglesby’s mother LaSandra James has worked at MVCAP for nearly 23 years.

The company set up a Facebook fundraiser that has already raised $20,000 for the family and children, Cronmiller said.

“I think Lola would've loved to know how many people care and are trying to help take care of her babies,” she added.

Democratic Rep. Veronica Escobar of Texas on Tuesday said she declined an invitation to join President Donald Trump on his upcoming visit to El Paso, Texas, as the city recovers from a mass shooting.

"I declined the invitation because I refuse to be an accessory to his visit," said Escobar, who represents El Paso. "I refuse to join without a dialogue about the pain his racist and hateful words & actions have caused our community and country."

Trump's visit to El Paso Wednesday comes after a man opened fire at a shopping center, killing 22 people. A 21-year-old white supremacist is in custody in the domestic terrorism case. In a televised address Monday, Trump called on the nation to "condemn racism, bigotry and white supremacy" but stopped short of acknowledging his own divisive and racist rhetoric.

Escobar, who told MSNBC Monday that Trump wasn't welcome in her community, said she requested a phone call with the President to "share what I have now heard from many constituents" but was told he was "too busy."

The ex-girlfriend of Dayton shooter Connor Betts told CNN that he was fascinated by mass shootings.

“He talked about it a lot," Adelia Johnson said. "It was his main focus as a psychology person. He was interested in what makes terrible people do terrible things."

Johnson said that she and Betts bonded over mental illness.

In a long statement, Johnson said she met Betts in college and they bonded over depression humor.

She said on their first date, Betts showed her video of a mass shooting and gave her a play-by-play of what was happening. Johnson said she felt it was not abnormal for a psychology student to be fascinated by the horrors of humans.

Their relationship, she said, consisted mostly of going out drinking and talking about mental illness.

Four patients remain hospitalized in Ohio after Sunday's shooting in Dayton, according to hospital officials.

Three patients remain at Miami Valley Hospital, according to spokesperson Ben Sutherly. One patient is in serious condition, one is in fair condition and one is in stable condition, he said.

All patients at Grandview Medical Center have been released, according to Elizabeth Long, spokesperson for the Kettering Health Network.

One patient remains in fair condition at the Kettering Medical Center, she said.

A new powerful mural in El Paso is reminding the community of its strength.

Gabe Vasquez painted the art piece that reads "El Paso Strong." He told CNN affiliate KFOX that he started working on it Monday night as a way to show the community to stand together.

Ivan Filiberto Manzano, one of the 22 people killed in Saturday's shooting in El Paso, was a caring friend and devoted father, his coworkers told CNN today.

Manzano worked in marketing at a Juarez radio station about five miles from Walmart, where a gunman allegedly targeted Mexicans and immigrants on Saturday.

His colleagues said Manzano adored his young son and daughter and cared for his ailing mother.

They said they expect his body will be returned this week to Mexico for burial.

The family of the man who authorities say killed 22 people in El Paso, Texas, are speaking out.

Patrick Crusius' family said in a statement they have been focused on the "countless families and friends of those affected by this atrocity." They went on to say that their son's actions were influenced in ways they didn't know or condone.

The family's statement also praised law enforcement and first responders who came to the scene. 

"The selflessness and devotion to total strangers in the face of indescribable suffering is something that we deeply respect and admire," the statement said.

Some background: Police said the suspected shooter had a ''stone cold look'' when he surrendered. He has been charged with capital murder in the mass shooting that left 22 people dead and more than two dozen wounded, according to court records and is being held without bond.

President Trump and first lady Melania Trump will visit El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, on Wednesday –– two cities reeling from mass shootings that left dozens dead.

The White House has not finalized or announced his activities on the ground, but here's what you can expect during the visits:

Some members of each community have expressed concern at the President’s visit. But the White House has downplayed those concerns.

“The President’s the president of all the people,” Gidley said.
