At Least 1 Shot in Mall

Police in Omaha, Nebraska, are searching for
a gunman or gunmen after a shooting at a busy shopping mall.
It's not known if the shooter is still inside the Westroads Mall
in west Omaha, and it's not certain how many people were shot or
injured.
Two people were seen being removed on stretchers, and rescue
workers were taking more stretchers inside the building.
Police were letting some people leave the mall, but no one is
being allowed to enter.
An employee of Von Maur department store says he heard a burst
of five to six shots followed by 15 to 20 shots.
A woman who answered the phone at the Old Navy store said 20 to
30 customers were huddled with employees in a back storeroom.
President Bush was in Omaha today for a fundraiser but left
about an hour before the shooting.
