Texas Allen Mall Deadly Shooting News | Police Confirm 9 Dead In Allen Mall Shooting | Shooter Shot At least nine people were shot and wounded by a gunman at a busy mall north of Dallas on Saturday (May 6), but police said they were not yet able to confirm how many people may have died in the incident. The gunman, whom authorities said they believe acted alone, was killed by a police officer after he began firing outside of the Allen Premium Outlets mall in Allen, Texas, the city's police chief Brian Harvey said at a press conference. Witness Rafael who works in the mall said he and clients rushed to the back of the store when they heard gunshots. Allen fire department chief Jon Boyd told the same press conference that his department took at least nine victims with gunshot wounds to area hospitals. He did not say what condition the victims were in, and added there could have been more people wounded. One unidentified eyewitness told local ABC affiliate WFAA TV that the gunman was "walking down the sidewalk just ... shooting his gun outside," and that "he was just shooting his gun everywhere for the most part." Blood could be seen on sidewalks outside the mall and white sheets covering what appeared to be bodies. Texas Governor Greg Abbott, calling the shooting an "unspeakable tragedy," said in a written statement that the state was prepared to offer any assistance local authorities may need. #texas #texashighschoolbasketball #allenmallshooting #texasmallshooting
