美國男子臉書直播槍殺路人 自稱已殺14人

美國男子史蒂夫•史蒂芬斯16日在社交網站臉書上直播其槍殺一名路人的過程，並稱自己已經殺了十幾人。視頻中的遇害人爲在街邊撿廢品的74歲老人羅伯特•古德溫。目前嫌疑人史蒂夫•史蒂芬斯的賬戶已被停用，他正被警方通緝。警方稱，他們沒有證實其他任何槍殺或死亡事件。

Authorities in several states were on the lookout on Monday for a man police say shot a Cleveland retiree collecting aluminum cans and then posted video of the apparently random killing on Facebook.
美國多個州的政府17日開始搜捕一名男子，警方稱該男子槍殺了克利夫蘭一名撿易拉罐的退休老人，並將似乎爲隨機謀殺的視頻發佈在臉書上。

"He could be nearby. He could be far away or anywhere in between," FBI agent Stephen Anthony said on day two of the manhunt for Steve Stephens, a 37-year-old job counselor for teens and young adults.
聯邦調查局特工史蒂芬•安東尼在追捕行動的第二天表示：“他可能就在附近，可能跑得遠遠的，也可能在任何地方。”37歲的史蒂夫•史蒂芬斯是一名青少年和青年輔導員。

Police said Stephens killed Robert Godwin Sr, a 74-year-old former foundry worker, on Sunday.
警方稱，史蒂芬斯16日殺害了曾經是鑄造工人的74歲老人羅伯特•戈德溫。

Investigators said Godwin was the only victim so far linked to Stephens, despite the suspect's claim in a separate video on Facebook that he had killed more than a dozen people.
調查人員表示，戈德溫是迄今爲止與斯蒂芬斯有關的唯一受害者，儘管他在臉書上的另一段視頻中聲稱自己已殺死十幾個人。

Officers searched dozens of places around the city and spoke with the suspect by cellphone, police said.
警方稱，他們搜查了市內數十個場所，並用手機與嫌疑犯交談。

Police chief Calvin Williams warned residents to be careful as they go about their day.
警察局局長加爾文•威廉姆斯警告居民在日常生活中要小心。

Authorities also warned people in Pennsylvania, New York, Indiana and Michigan to be alert for Stephens, who was wanted on a charge of aggravated murder.
政府還警告賓夕法尼亞、紐約、印第安納以及密歇根的人們警惕史蒂芬斯，他是一名受到嚴重謀殺罪指控的通緝犯。

Godwin apparently was shot while out picking up cans in a plastic shopping bag, his daughter said.
戈德溫的女兒黛比•戈德溫稱，父親似乎是在外面拎着塑料袋撿易拉罐時被槍殺的。

"Not because he needed the money, it was just something he did," said 52-year-old Debbie Godwin. "That's all he was doing. He wasn't harming anyone."
52歲的黛比稱：“他這麼做不是爲了錢，只是找點事做。這就是他所做的一切。他沒有傷害任何人。”

She said her father, who had 10 children, was a gentle man with nothing mean about him.
黛比稱，父親有10個子女，是一個溫和的男人，爲人並不刻薄。

"We called him the junk man," she said. "He'd pick up things off the street and fix them. He picked up bikes and he fixed them."
“我們叫他撿破爛的，他會從街上撿東西拿回來修理。他撿過自行車，把它們修好了。”

The motive for the shooting was not clear from the shaky video, in which Stephens told Godwin a woman's name and said: "She's the reason that this is about to happen to you." Godwin did not seem to recognize the woman's name.
從模糊的視頻中無法得知史蒂芬斯的殺人動機，視頻中，史蒂芬斯對戈德溫說了一個女人的名字，還說：“她是你承受這一切的原因。”戈德溫似乎不知道這個女人的名字。

The suspect then pointed a gun at Godwin, who shielded his face with the plastic bag.
史蒂芬斯隨後拿槍指着戈德溫，後者用塑料袋擋住了自己的臉。

Facebook said the video was posted after the killing but was not broadcast on Facebook Live as police initially indicated. The suspect did go live on the social media site at another point on Sunday.
社交媒體網站臉書表示，該視頻是在兇殺案發生之後發佈的，而非警方最初所說的在臉書上直播。16日的另一個時間段嫌疑人確實在該網站進行了直播。

The video of the killing was on Facebook for about three hours before it was taken down. Stephens' Facebook page also was eventually removed.
這段殺人視頻發佈約3小時後被臉書撤下，史蒂芬斯的臉書主頁最終也被刪除。

"This is a horrific crime and we do not allow this kind of content on Facebook," a spokesperson for the company said. "We work hard to keep a safe environment on Facebook, and are in touch with law enforcement in emergencies when there are direct threats to physical safety."
臉書發言人表示：“這是一起可怕的罪行，我們不允許臉書網上出現這種內容。我們致力於在臉書上維持安全的環境，並在出現直接威脅到人身安全的緊急情況時與警方聯繫。”

In the separate video, Stephens said: "I killed 13, so I'm working on 14 as we speak."
在另一段視頻中，史蒂芬斯說：“我殺了13個人，如我所言，我正在殺第14個人。”

Police said they had not verified any other shootings or deaths.
警方說，他們尚未證實和史蒂芬斯有關的其他任何槍殺或死亡事件。

Stephens worked at Beech Brook, a behavioral health agency headquartered in Pepper Pike, near Cleveland. He helped young people develop job skills and find employment, said Beech Brook spokeswoman Nancy Kortemeyer.
史蒂芬斯曾在克利夫蘭附近的行爲健康機構Beech Brook工作，該機構總部位於佩珀派克。Beech Brook的發言人南茜•科特麥爾稱，史蒂芬斯曾幫助年輕人培養工作技能、找工作。

An extensive background check before he was hired turned up nothing worrisome, she said.
南茜稱，他們在錄用史蒂芬斯前進行了廣泛的背景調查，結果沒發現什麼令人擔憂的情況。

"We just hope Mr Stephens is apprehended as quickly as possible so that no one else is injured," she said.
她說：“我們只希望史蒂芬斯能儘快被逮捕，以免其他人受傷。”

In January, four people in Chicago were accused of attacking an 18-year-old disabled man and broadcasting the attack on Facebook Live while shouting "fuck Donald Trump" and "fuck white people".
今年1月，芝加哥有4人被指控攻擊一名18歲的殘疾人並在臉書上進行直播，還大喊着“去你*的唐納德•特朗普”、“去你*的白人”。

A month later, the accused pleaded not guilty to assaulting the victim.
一個月後，被告人對襲擊受害人的指控作了無罪抗辯。
