GIG HARBOR, Wash. -- A young woman walked into a Gig Harbor store on
Saturday and began firing at customers at random before being tackled
to the ground.

Two men were wounded in the shooting, but investigators don't yet know
what prompted the woman to open fire.

"There was no indication that she had any interaction with these
people or she knew these people," said Pierce County Sheriff Paul
Pastor.

The shooting occurred just before 1 p.m. at the Peninsula Market,
located at 14220 92nd Ave. NW.

A 77-year-old man was shot in the leg and a 35-year-old man suffered a
gunshot wound to the torso. Both were taken to Tacoma General Hospital
but their current conditions were not known.

Pastor said the victims had been standing in different checkout lines
and that it appears the woman was shooting people at random.

After the two men were shot other customers threw the armed woman to
the ground and held her down by sitting on her until deputies arrived.

"This is obviously an upsetting thing to this community," Pastor said,
adding that investigators are looking into the possibility that the
woman had a documented history of mental health problems.

The woman has no known criminal history, he said.

Investigators cordoned off the market through the day while they
interviewed witnesses and collected evidence at the scene.

Police were investigating a fatal stabbing, wreck and home invasion in
north Raleigh Sunday to determine whether they were all related.


It appears that you can use a knife to kill people too. Ban all knives.
