that took place at the outlet mall in allen, texas, suburb north of texas. the area you see behind the lights pointing at us there is where we believe at least six of the victims were killed here in this shooting attack. from what we've been able to piece together speaking with witnesses, that was the area where the shooting attack happened. we're also told and we spoke with a witness who watched the very end of all of this shooting attack when an officer took out the suspected gunman. we saw a woman who shared a picture of that final scene, showed the gunman laying on the ground wearing a tactical vest, an assault style rifle laying on the ground next to him. we are trying to figure out exactly who that gunman is. investigators at a press conference would not take questions as to what has happened. they only confirmed they believe the suspect acted alone and that there were eight victims in all, three of those in critical condition fighting for their lives tonight. ed lavandera, cnn, allen, texas. >>> we're hearing details from the witness who saved people.
