State flags ordered to fly at half-staff
All Ohio and American flags at public buildings and grounds are to be flown at half-staff until Tuesday, Nov. 10, in honor of the victims of the Fort Hood shootings, Gov. Ted Strickland ordered. “Ohio grieves for the victims of the tragedy at Fort Hood. The prayers of our people seek comfort for the families of those who were lost, recovery for those who were injured, and solace for all whose lives were affected by this senseless violence,” Strickland said in a written statement.
