Three people died in a shooting outside a Walmart store in Oklahoma on Monday morning, law enforcement officials said, the third fatal shooting at the retailer in five months and the latest in a string of gun violence across the United States.
Video of the scene showed a heavy police presence around a car riddled with bullet holes in the Walmart car park in Duncan, Oklahoma. A white sheet, covering what appeared to be a body, was laid next to it, with bloodstains visible on the ground.
The bodies of one woman and one man were found inside the car, with another dead man found outside the car, the Duncan Police Department said on Facebook. A handgun was found on the scene, police said.
The shooter was among the dead, the Duncan Banner newspaper reported, citing police.
Duncan is a town of roughly 22,000 people located about 130km (80 miles) south of Oklahoma City.
