Police can not find the gunman.

Shooter on the loose at New Jersey mall

(CNN) -- A shooter opened fire at a New Jersey mall late Monday, sending panic through the shopping center and igniting a massive police response.
The gunman inside Westfield Garden State Plaza Mall in Paramus, New Jersey, has not yet been found during a sweep of the shopping center by Bergen County SWAT, said county Chief of Staff Jeanne Baratta.
Mayor Rich LaBarbiera said there have been no injuries, and authorities believe the gunman is no longer in the mall.
The store-by-store sweep is ongoing.
"Police were yelling 'shots fired'" Witness: I heard 6 or 7 gunshots
At least one gunman is said to have fired shots at security cameras, the state police said.
A single shell casing has been found, a Bergen County emergency management official said.
Eddie Kahmann, who works inside the mall, told CNN he heard 6 or 7 gunshots around 9:20 p.m. ET.
"There was just people running like crazy, so I quickly just closed my doors, ran to the back, turned off all the lights, music and everything, just to stay hidden," he said.
Kahmann spoke from inside the mall, one of the largest shopping centers in the New York City area.
Allie Cozic, another mall employee, said she saw "someone dressed in all black, carrying a large gun, walk past our store."
She said she heard loud bangs about 10 minutes before her store was set to close for the night.
"It was just chaos. Everyone was just kind of running to wherever they could," Cozic said.
"It was almost like when you're watching a horror movie and the killer is walking slowly -- that's what it seemed like. He was wearing all black, it almost looked like body armor of some kind. As soon as I saw the gun, I just turned and ran," she said.
There is a large police presence at the mall, which was set to close at 9:30 p.m. ET. There are about 20 vehicles both marked and unmarked.
Police are putting on flak jackets and bringing out assault weapons. People have been pushed away from the mall and are telling CNN that they've been told the shopping center is on lockdown.
Westfield Garden State Plaza is located some 12 miles from Manhattan. It boasts of being home to nearly 300 specialty shops and boutiques.

6 or 7 shots fired, but a single casing found?

Is it possible the casing was from police and there wasn't a shooter with a motorcycle helmet and rifle? I'm starting to wonder if this isn't mass hysteria. This mall must be (or at least should be) swarming with police walking through the mall. This mall must have video cameras and so police can identify where the guy came from (where is motorcycle/car still is) and what he was wearing. Yet still no word on a suspect.

Check the news first. Guy's dead. Sounds like the whole thing was a suicide by police attempt, ending in suicide.

suspect as Richard Shoop, 20, of Teaneck, who he called a known drug abuser who may have had a criminal record and was unemployed. A house in Teaneck believed to be"

"Shoop had gone to the mall with the intention of dying, either through suicide or being shot by police. He said they did not believe Shoop had any intention to hurt anyone else, noting that several witnesses said he had the opportunity to kill them, but that he never raised his rifle against them."

The gunman who opened fire inside a sprawling New Jersey mall was found dead inside the mall early this morning with a self-inflicted gunshot wound, authorities said.

Authorities identified the suspect as Richard Shoop, 20, of Teaneck, N.J., and said his body was found in a back area of mall around 3:20 a.m.

Police discovered his body more than six hours after they say Shoop entered the Westfield Garden State Plaza Mall Monday night and fired his weapon at least six times, Bergen County Prosecutor John Molinelli said at an early morning news conference. The gun, described as a modified rifle, was owned lawfully by his brother, Molinelli said.

No confirmation whether he was in full body armor as per earlier reports. If true, that doesn't sound like an attempt to have police do the dirty work of killing him off. His actions under the influence are no longer coherent. Who knows?

Some things are best left to the imagination and not experienced in person.

Life is for the living. And God created basements for the rest.
Are you warm enough?
