The death toll rose to seven after a gunman's rampage that left many more injured following what began as a routine traffic stop in Odessa, Texas.
The death toll rose to seven Sunday after a gunman's rampage that left many more injured following what began as a routine traffic stop in Odessa, police in the West Texas city said.
The assault took place one day before a series of gun law changes in state that ease restrictions on where Texans can carry or store firearms, from foster homes to churches. The suspect then shot one Odessa officer and one Midland Police Department officer before authorities returned fire and killed the suspect near a Cinergy movie theater in Odessa.
More shots are heard, and the man tells people near him to get down. More police cars arrive, and the man says"He's shooting them. Oh, he killed him." But it was not clear who was shooting.
