PORTLAND, Ore. — A gunman opened fire in a suburban Portland shopping mall Tuesday, killing two people and wounding another as people were doing their Christmas shopping, authorities said.
Witnesses described a scene of chaos and disbelief as a gunman wearing some sort of camouflage outfit and what looked like a hockey mask fired rounds from a military-style rifle near the food court at Clackamas Town Center.

I live in Portland, OR. Local law enforcement have released the names of the victims and the shooter. Cindy Ann Yuille 54, Steven Forsyth 45, were both killed by the shooter Jacob Tyler Robers 22. Kristina Shevchenko 15 was shot, in serious condition is now stable having undergone surgery at OHSU.
According to the police, the shooter acted alone and there was no indication of any motive for the shooting. Police said it appears the suspect's rifle did jam while he was attacking victims in the food court but he was able to get the weapon working again. Roberts died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. He had no previous criminal record.
Roberts, Jacob Tyler. sorry!
