Three people, including the gunman, are dead in a shooting in a mall near Portland, police say. The shooting began around 3:30pm in Clackamas Town Center in Happy Valley, Oregon. The suspect, who witnesses say was wearing a hockey mask, bullet proof vest and possibly body armor, reportedly opened fire with an AR-15 assault rifle in the food court area outside a Macy's department store. He died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound after killing two people and wounding at least several people. Reports say the suspect entered the mall through Macy's and ran through the store until he reached the food court on the second floor in a public area outside Macy's. Witnesses report hearing as many as 20 to 60 gunshots. It is believed the rifle jammed at one point and the suspect dropped either magazine or the gun itself on the floor. The AR-15 is the civilian variant of the military's M-16 assault rifle. This animation is based on news reports available as of 6am GMT on Wednesday, Dec. 12.
