OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A man with an AR-15-style rifle opened fire inside a Target store in Omaha, sending panicked shoppers and employees scrambling for safety before he was fatally shot by police Tuesday afternoon, authorities said.

Police Chief Todd Schmaderer said the man had “plenty of ammunition” and that evidence suggests he fired multiple rounds, but it wasn’t immediately known if he fired at anyone.

Schmaderer said no wounded people were found, and police had searched through the store “because there were some people hiding in there.”

Cathy Mahannah, a customer, said the scene inside the store was “sheer panic.”

The shooting sounds like suicide by cop. The shooter fired multiple rounds from what was described as an "AR15", and was killed by police with no other customers or employees injured. Nebraska is currently in the early stages of getting a constitutional carry bill passed. I would guess that this shooting will solidify the support for the bill.

Gun free zones are soft targets for these people. Still the majority of mass shootings are gang related so why aren't you loons trying to disarm the gangs instead of law abiding citizens ?

Those shooting aren't gang related, it done by a lone shooter.
He deserved what he got.

I don't have any issue with him getting shot, but that doesn't change the fact that the majority of mass shootings are gang related and handguns are used more than rifles.

Why aren't you anti-constitutional loons focused on the major causes of mass shootings ?

Lone gunmen outliers in nation’s mass shootings

The country’s eyes are trained on high-profile massacres in Texas and Buffalo, but most mass shootings bear little resemblance to those.

The type of gun used in most US homicides is not an AR-15

Handguns are responsible for nearly two-thirds of the nation’s gun murders.

Yup. Have to at least give this guy credit for purposely not taking anyone else with him.

Yes, when you advocate for the murder of babies as a "human right", you get a society that doesn't value life.
