Five people including a police officer and a gunman died at a Missouri gas station after the gunman went inside and opened fire, police said on Monday.
Three citizens were also killed, Springfield police chief Paul Williams announced. One officer was injured, and another citizen.
Williams said police received reports of “multiple shooting calls throughout the city” late on Sunday. As officers were responding, witnesses reported that a vehicle crashed into a Kum & Go gas station and convenience store and the gunman ran inside and began shooting customers and employees, Williams added.
The first two officers who arrived were shot. Other officers pulled the injured officers from the store then went inside, finding three citizens dead. The gunman was also dead, apparently from a self-inflicted gunshot, Williams said.
