Authorities are searching for a man who they say opened fire Monday at a Fred Meyer grocery store in Washington state, killing one person and injuring another.
The suspect in the shooting at a Fred Meyer store in Richland was described as a middle-aged white man with a handgun. He is believed to have fled the store after the shooting, though it was not known he left by foot or in a vehicle, Richland police Commander Chris Lee said.
Lee said there were no additional victims. The store on Wellsian Way was closed for further investigation. Police and sheriff’s deputies from across the Tri-Cities were called to help, and schools were placed on modified lockdown.
