The owner of a store in the same shopping mall told the newspaper that he saw a man wearing a red shirt and black shorts pull up to the store in his blue minivan, take out a rifle and shoot a man on a motorcycle. The man then walked into the IHOP and began firing, the owner, Ralph Swagler, told the Gazette-Journal.

Anyone remember Lubys in 1991?
We lived in Copperas cove at the time, and were supposed to meet my Grandparents there for lunch that afternoon, my sister was sick so we had to cancel.

you know. If I went crazy... and I was compelled to mass murder people. Simply for irony I think I would kill people with a sharp stick and a pillowcase full of trigger locks. You know, if I ever run for office like I plan, posts like these are gonna catch up with me.

[Updated at 2:10 p.m.] Three people were killed and six others were wounded Tuesday in a shooting at a Carson City, Nevada, IHOP restaurant, police said.

Those six victims did include the shooter, who police said turned a gun on himself.

It "appears its going to be difficult for him to survive," Ken Furlong with the Carson City's Sheriff's Office said about the gunman.

"He was still breathing," he added.
