El Paso Mass

A male suspect was seen walking through the parking lot of a Walmart in El Paso, Texas, on the morning of August 3, 2019. After a few minutes, he returned to his vehicle and remained seated inside for a short time. He then exited the car, opened the trunk, and retrieved an AK-47-style rifle. He began shooting at people in the parking lot, striking multiple victims. The suspect made his way into the Walmart, continuing to fire. Inside the store, additional victims were shot, many caught by surprise as they shopped with their families or waited in line at checkout. Surveillance footage showed people running for cover, ducking behind shelves, cash registers, and product displays. Others lay on the ground, pretending to be dead in hopes of avoiding detection. Some employees guided customers to emergency exits, while others hid in storage rooms or behind locked doors in the break area. The gunman moved through different sections of the store, firing at random. Witnesses later described the scene as chaotic and terrifying, with loud gunshots echoing through the aisles. The shooting inside the building lasted approximately three minutes. After leaving the store, the suspect fired at a passing car in the parking lot, killing another person. He then got back into his vehicle and drove away from the scene. The first 911 call was placed at 10:39 a.m. Law enforcement officers arrived on scene approximately six minutes later and encountered multiple casualties, including both deceased and injured individuals. The suspect was stopped shortly after the shooting by a Texas Ranger and an El Paso police officer on a motorcycle. He was identified as 21-year-old Patrick Wood Crusius.
