Witnesses said that just before noon a man armed with two guns, likely a rifle and a pistol, walked into a Legacy Medical Clinic in the Tualatin Business Park and opened fire on people in the building.
Dave Merriman, who was driving in a truck near the building at the time of the shooting, said that at around 11:48 a.m. he saw a woman in a white lab coat covered in blood running down Martinazzi Avenue from the Tualatin Business Park just west of Interstate 5.
“She lunged in front of the truck and screamed, ‘Get me out of here as fast you can!’ ” Merriman said.
Merriman said that the woman told him an armed man walked into the clinic’s office and opened fire. “She told me that he came right into the office with two guns and just opened fire,” he said.
Merriman said that he heard loud pops fired from an area near the intersection just before noon. He called emergency dispatchers but the line was busy. A few minutes after he heard the shots, several police officers zoomed to the area in their patrol cars, he said.
Merriman said the woman he helped suffered minor injuries, mostly cuts from glass, and was treated by medical workers.

When seconds count, the police are only minutes away!
(Not that I mind, it's impossible for them to be everywhere. But it argues for a well armed citizenry.)
Thanks alot.
