KTSM has now confirmed that 18 people have been shot at the Walmart across the street from the mall, with multiple injuries. Their condition is unknown.

Unconfirmed reports suggest that a man with an AK-47 opened fire in the parking lot. One witness told CBS News that he was about to enter the Walmart when he heard what sounded like ten gunshots and, he believes, two armed people. He saw one elderly woman fall to the ground, but did not know whether she was shot.

@JaneMarple  I hate to say it, but ,I don't think it will, in the near future. We used to have to worry about the Atomic bomb, now it is getting shot...places you used to feel safe ,like churches ,are no longer safe havens from people with grudges and guns

So scary. Like I said the other day on a post here, we are truly not safe anywhere. It is by the Grace of God we get home alive from anywhere we go.  It is sad that people cant just enjoy life and go where they want without this happening!!
