| Scene of shooting at Hammond Walmart |
There has been a shooting in the parking lot of a Walmart Supercenter in Hammond, Indiana, following a vehicular crash involving three cars. Multiple shots were fired, injuring one woman.
The Walmart never closed.
From an article:
The shooting happened in the store's parking lot at 1100 Fifth Ave. about 2:37 p.m. following a crash, police said. It was unclear if the motorists knew each other.
A 22-year-old woman was grazed by a bullet and has non-life-threatening injuries, Hammond police Lt. Richard Hoyda said. Another unidentified person was treated at a local hospital for injuries suffered in the crash.
Hoyda said officers found multiple shell casings on the ground.
Officers were on the scene sorting out the details of how the shooting unfolded, Hoyda said Sunday afternoon. It appears one of the vehicles drove off toward Chicago.
No arrests had been made as of Sunday afternoon.
An employee of the store said the Walmart Supercenter remains open while police continue investigating the shooting.(a related article)
In December of 2009, there was another shooting at a Walmart in Hammond (maybe the same Walmart?), where two suspects shot and murdered a man in his van, in the parking lot.
Walmart. Save money. Die faster.
