Multiple People Injured in Shooting at Texas Outlet Mall

A member of Congress said “a shooter is down and there are multiple casualties” after gunfire erupted at the Allen Premium Outlets in Allen, Texas, on Saturday.

May 6, 2023- Multiple people have been injured after gunfire erupted at a mall north of Dallas on Saturday, an elected official said, in a shooting that sent shoppers running from stores and to find shelter.

Keith Self, a member of Congress who represents the area north of Dallas that includes the mall, said on Twitter that “a shooter is down and there are multiple casualties” after a shooting at the Allen Premium Outlets in Allen, Texas.

Around 4:30 p.m. Central time, the Allen Police Department said on Twitter that law enforcement was at the mall and that an “active investigation is underway.”

Sgt. Jessica Pond of the Collin County Sheriff’s Office said there were “some possibly wounded” but could not provide further details.
A video circulating on social media showed people running through a parking lot in front of a shopping center with loud popping sounds in the background.

A livestream from a local Fox television affiliate showed scores of shoppers being evacuated in an orderly fashion from shops like H&M, Michael Kors, American Eagle and Kay Jewelers. Allen Premium Outlets is an outdoor mall about 25 miles north of Dallas, with more than 120 outlet stores. Allen is home to nearly 107,000 people.

Brayson Jones, 17, had arrived early for his shift at the Champs Sports outlet store and was sitting in his car when he heard “probably 20-plus shots” and saw people running out of stores, he said.

Mr. Jones said a stranger ran toward his car and motioned to let him inside, then the two drove away.

“As soon as I heard the shots and people yelling, I didn’t wait to see what was going on, I backed out and got out of there,” he said.

In a statement, Gov. Greg Abbott called the shooting an “unspeakable tragedy.”

Mr. Abbott also said he had been in touch with the mayor of Allen, Ken Fulk, and the director of the Texas Department of Safety, Steven McCraw, to offer “the full support of the State of Texas to local officials to ensure all needed assistance and resources are swiftly deployed.”

One suspect believed to be dead in shooting at Texas mall, source says; police searching for possible second suspect

Authorities in a suburb of Dallas are responding to a shooting at an outlet mall, with ATF personnel on the scene at Allen Premium Outlets.

There is at least one confirmed shooter who is being reported as deceased on the ground, a law enforcement source told CNN.

There is a search for a possible second gunman, according to the source, based on descriptions from witnesses, although the involvement of a second shooter is not confirmed.

Congressman Keith Self told CNN’s Paula Reid that there are multiple casualties but he declined to specify a number, saying he would leave that information to law enforcement.

“The shooter is dead and I am told by law enforcement that there was only one shooter, they have now confirmed that,” the Republican representative said. “There are now multiple victims but I am going to leave that to law enforcement to announce. The scene is now secure but it’s fluid.”

Police believe they have identified the vehicle of the deceased suspect, which is being examined by the bomb squad as a precaution, the source says.

The Dallas field office of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives tweeted Saturday afternoon that personnel were responding to an active shooter incident at the mall.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott called it an “unspeakable tragedy,” saying in a statement that “our hearts are with the people of Allen, Texas.”

Jaynal Pervez told CNN affiliate KTVT that he arrived at the mall after his daughter, who was inside, called to inform him about a shooting.

“We saw the police outside the door, and they told us we had to go, and that they are still looking for the person,” Pervez said. “There’s no more safe places. I don’t know what to do.”

Police in Allen asked residents to avoid the area.

Tony Wright, an Allen resident whose home backs up to the Allen Premium Outlets, said his family thought they heard construction before they realized it was gunshots.

Wright said he was driving away from his house at the time and didn’t hear the gunshots himself, but his family called him moments later, “freaking out,” and saying they heard gunfire.

Initially, however, it wasn’t clear.

“Everyone thought it was hammering,” he said of the noise of gunfire that sounded like construction.

But he said once they saw people fleeing the outlet mall, the family locked the doors and hunkered down.

Americans need to see the victims in all mass shootings. The blood the gore, the pointlessness of innocents dying.
Maybe then the people will institute change.

True. In Israel, citizens would have pulled their firearms and converged on that freak.
