On Saturday evening, anyone scrolling through Twitter likely came upon startling video footage of the aftermath of a mass shooting that took place at the Allen Premium Outlets mall in Texas. In the various clips — some censored, and others not — the bodies of victims ranging in ages from 5 to 51 lay piled in a heap outside of the mall where a lone gunman had opened fire and was later taken down by responding law enforcement.
According to reporting by Forth Worth Star-Telegram, Allen Police Chief Brian Harvey provided a statement saying that "an officer was on an unrelated call at the outlet mall at 3:36 p.m. when he heard gunshots and ran toward them."
