Prayers. So depressing

It's hard reading twitter when something like this happens. Trying to get actual facts is the hardest part. I've read tweets that said 4 dead and others that say 3. Then I read that the shooter is on the phone with the police and then another tweet saying he is on the loose, whereabouts unknown.

Prayers up for the victims families and prayers that they catch him before he can do anymore damage.

I hate reading/hearing stories of this nature.

At Least 3 Dead in Shooting at Cascade Mall in Washington State
by JILLIAN SEDERHOLM

A gunman remains at large after killing at least three people in a shooting at a mall in Washington state on Friday night, Washington State Police said.

Authorities initially said four people had died in the shooting, but later revised the number to say that three women had been killed and one man was critically injured. One other woman suffered non-life threatening injuries.

Police are still searching for the shooter who opened fire at a Macy's store at Cascade Mall in Burlington, about 65 miles north of Seattle, Sgt. Mark Francis said on Twitter.

Francis said authorities believe there was only one gunman and are searching for a man wearing gray and armed with a rifle who was last seen walking toward Interstate 5 from the mall.

Reports about a shooting started coming in around 7 p.m. local time, Washington State Trooper spokeswoman Heather Axtman said.

There is no motive at this time and no indication that the event was terror related, Axtman said.

"We have very little information right now," Axtman said. "We're still trying to gather as many witnesses as we can to get more information."
