FBI assists in Cascade Mall attack probe in Burlington
Burlington : The FBI says it is helping with intelligence review and manpower in the Cascade Mall shooting in Burlington, Washington where four people were killed by a gunman who is still on the loose. The FBI’s Seattle office said via Twitter that it “has no information to suggest additional attacks planned” in Washington state but did not elaborate. Authorities were searching for a man wearing gray who was last seen walking toward Interstate 5.
Washington State Patrol spokesman Mark Francis said Friday night that three females were killed, one male suffered life-threatening injuries and another female suffered non-life threatening injuries at the Cascade Mall. Federal authorities are currently responding to the deadly mall shooting.
Governor Jay Inslee said that many questions remain but state patrol and local law enforcement are on the scene working swiftly to locate the shooter and clear the area. “Trudi and I send our condolences to the families of the victims and prayers for anyone injured. We urge residents to heed all safety and detour warnings. Stay close to your friends and loved ones as we await more information and, hopefully, news of the suspect’s capture,” he said in a statement.
An employee at a restaurant near Cascade Mall said they “immediately locked the doors” when they heard of the mayhem Friday night. Stephanie Bose, an assistant general manager at Johnny Carino’s Italian restaurant near Cascade Mall in Burlington, Washington, told AP the shooting happened inside the Macy’s department store. Her restaurant is just outside the Macy’s.
The Washington State Patrol said the shooting happened at the Cascade Mall in Burlington, about 65 miles (105 kilometers) north of Seattle. Sgt. Mark Francis said it wasn’t immediately known if there was more than one gunman involved.
Francis said at about 8:30 p.m. that the mall had been evacuated and emergency medical personnel were cleared to enter and attend to any injuries. The Cascade Mall is an enclosed shopping mall in Burlington, Washington that opened in 1990, according to the mall’s website. It features J.C. Penney, TJ Maxx, and Macy’s stores, among other stores, restaurants and a movie theater.
