(CNN)Four people were killed in a shooting at a mall in Burlington, Washington, on Friday night, a spokesman for the state patrol tweeted. Police are searching for at least one shooter, and are sweeping stores in the mall, Sgt. Mark Francis said.
Burlington is about an hour north of Seattle.

My brother lives in Bow
There may be more Muslims down from Canada to buy cheap milk at Costco.
Let’s hope that Bill Bryant takes our clown governor out with some votes. I’ve met him and will see him again Sunday. He is for the 2nd Amendment. He told us that Trump is drawing people who have never voted before and they will vote Republican. Wouldn’t it be great if Washington turned red?
If more people would carry guns these killers would be shot dead before they killed more people.
I live minutes away ... they still haven’t caught the guy that did it.
This is assuredly not terrorism. I live in the area and that mall sees gang conflict almost every Friday. This area has a massive population of illegal aliens and the gang problem is out of control. Shootings happen all the time, and there is nothing to indicate that this isn’t just another one of those incidents.
Besides: there are multiple military and infrastructure installations within a half hour in almost every direction (air stations, naval stations, munitions depots, refineries, gas pipelines, ports, etc.), so if this is terrorism, it is the most inept terrorism imaginable.
Seattle...nuff sed
another gun free zone
around here the only gun free zones are federal, state, county and city offices. You can’t carry if you go in to pay your water bill...not even a pocket knife... armed police officer siting there eyeballing you and goes nuts if he sees a holster....an empty one.
Did some people/girl watching there while on some of my TDYs to some of the initial intelligence agencies during my enlistment. (NSA had finally come out of the shadows and was no longer referred to as No Such Agency).
Fifth victim has died. So this is 5 dead and gunman on the loose.
How many of you have gone into a gun free zone and your presence allowed it to remain a gun free zone.
Isn’t Seattle a sanctuary city? That lends credence to the shooter being hispanic. However, carrying a rifle into a mall does not fit previous gang activity, and indicates a person unfamiliar with our way of life, such as an illegal alien or unwelcome refugee.
You are right, I grew up in SoCal and he’s not mex
I fell asleep late into the nite with this unresolved, gun free zones are the touchie feelie way to die
Scanner announced to resume normal traffic. I think it is over.
Over as in gave in or possible capture

I have lived in California for 45 years and worked in and out of California a year plus before moving here,
Like you. I have known and seen Mexicans and Cal/Mexs for decades, and this male does not look like the Mexicans and Cal/Mexs, I have known. He appears to be Persian, Afghani, Pakki, or Syrian.
My BIL who is Mexcican American looked at the perps pic and said he does not look Hispanic to him.
Exactly!
It’s strange how little information is coming out about this shooting, at least from the major media.
No interviews with witnesses, nothing about him conversing with anyone prior to the shooting.
It’s damn strange.
