A New Year’s celebration in Pasco County turned deadly after an argument between two people escalated into gunfire in the parking lot of a busy shopping mall.

The People's Union USA has shared a list of five, big American companies that it will be boycotting this month.

A volunteer security official was reportedly also killed during the clashes. As Iran slips deeper into economic crisis, the unrest, which began Sunday in Tehran, has spread to other cities.

The shooter allegedly "admitted to ‘drinking a few beers' and firing his rifle off for NYE," the Thurston County Sheriff posted on Facebook.

Masoud Pezeshkian said it was down to his government to fix the issues faced by Iranians.
