The gunman who killed three people in an Indiana mall yesterday fired 24 rounds from a legally owned rifle after waiting in the mall bathroom for an hour, and was killed two minutes after he started shooting by a Good Samaritan.

Jonathan Sapirman, 20, is the gunman responsible for yesterday's attack at the Greenwood Park Mall in Indiana. He had recently been evicted from his apartment, according to his family.

Sapirman waited in the mall bathroom for an hour before he opened fire in the food court using a Sig Sauer 400M rifle that he legally purchased in March this year at a local gun store.

He killed Pedro Pineda, 56, Rosa Mirian Rivera de Pineda, 37, and Victor Gomez, 30. It's unclear if he shot them at random or if they were intended targets.

Sapirman was then shot dead by 22-year-old Elisjsha Dicken, who was shopping with his girlfriend and who pulled out his own weapon when he saw the gunman open fire.

Dicken was named by police on Monday and was hailed as a hero for his quick-thinking.

'His actions were nothing short of heroic. He engaged the gunman from quite a distance with a handgun and was very proficient,' Greenwood Police Chief Jim Ison said at a press conference on Monday afternoon where he also revealed;

He is pretty. Very pretty. Hmm-mmm pretty. Good luck.

"Pretty" sure that's not going to matter in the crematorium.

How did he get to the mall if he had no car? Local FBI drop him off?

Rimshot.
