The suspect shot several times in all directions in an attempt to kill as many people possible. Several people were immediately shot and died on scene. The loud horrific sounds of gunshots sent a panic throughout the store.
Officer Eric was the first officer on the scene, and was quickly killed by the suspect. Originally there were only 6 people killed in the shooting spree, but as the day moved on the death toll rose to 10. More may come.
Multiple people were shot by the suspect and are in area hospitals.
