Wichita Falls Shooting Leaves 2 Dead

Wichita Falls police said one bystander was killed and four wounded in a Texas shooting spree on Tuesday night, April 20. The suspected shooter, 22-year-old Ross William Muehlberger died Wednesday morning in the hospital.

Police were summoned to a bookstore about gunshots fired. Four people suffered from non-life threatening injuries. Later that night police received a report about the suspect in a bar, where one man was shot and killed. The identity of the victim has not been released.

The suspected shooter, Ross William Muehlberger, fled to a house. He apparently took his own life in the house. Police found Muehlberger died from evidently self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Hospital spokeswoman Kim Madden says one victim was in fair condition. Three other victims were transported to Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas. Their conditions were not immediately available.

Sooo.... Much thanks for the summary on the shooting however.... I would suggest editing before making a post.... Obviously if the guy "shot himself" then there is no need to put that police say "he died from a self inflicted gun shot wound". You're just restating yourself... Buuuut thanks for the input (:
