Cascade Mall in Burlington, WA

Another mall shooting in Washington. One can only think with the absence of return fire that it took place in a Gun Free Zone like most of Washington's malls are.

Check out this article from USA TODAY:

It's a good thing witnesses described the suspect as being Hispanic or I might jump to conclusions based on the photos released. Many 'illegals' in that area due to farming and tulip business.

Apparently it also seems that his "hunting rifle" fired 8-9 times which supports my thinking it's a Ruger 10/22 which is what I see in the photo. (Thank goodness it wasn't black or an AR.) Have the rifle so serial numbers, fingerprints and other DNA left behind. Hopefully won't take long to decipher what that leads to.

Suspect is still on the loose and if he's smart he should be in California by now. Even though he was only miles from Canada.

RIP to the victims.
