A gunman has opened fire in the parking lot of a Target store in Texas,
United States, killing three people, according to authorities.
The attack occurred on Monday in the state’s capital, Austin, with Chief of
Police Lisa Davis describing the attacker as a man in his 30s with “a mental
health history”.
After the shooting, the man fled the scene in a stolen car, which he later
crashed. He then stole another car from a nearby dealership before he was
captured.
Emergency responders found the three victims, who were not immediately
identified, when they arrived at the scene. Two were pronounced dead
immediately, with a third pronounced dead at a hospital.
