By the numbers: 337 mass shootings have occurred so far this year in the U.S. as of Oct. 11, according to the Gun Violence Archive. Any incident involving more than four people being shot, not including the shooter, is considered a mass shooting by GVA standards. There is no standard definition for what constitutes a mass shooting, but Axios has consistently used GVA's definition in its analysis and coverage of mass shootings and gun violence in recent years.
