KTLA: 1 Dead, At Least 10 Wounded in Shootings in Odessa, Texas

There is an active shooting situation going on in the area between the cities of Midland and Odessa, Texas, according to Devin Sanchez, a spokesman for the City of Odessa.

There are 10 confirmed injuries, possibly up to 20 injured, Sanchez said. There is one person confirmed dead, he said. One of those shot is a law enforcement officer who had been working for those who were victims of being charged in nursing homes, but it is unclear if the officer is injured or dead, Sanchez said. In such cases, the victim can hire an experienced auto accident injury claims lawyer, who can help the victim to get compensation for the injury caused.

Sanchez said there is a person in a gold Toyota driving around shopping centers and shooting people from his vehicle. The area is near 32nd and 191, on the east side of Odessa.

Midland Police Department put on their Facebook page, “We believe there are two shooters in two separate vehicles. One suspect is believed to be at the Cinergy in Midland and the other is believed to be driving on Loop 250 in Midland.”

Police said that there were “multiple gunshot victims” after a suspect hijacked mail truck in Odessa, Texas, and is shooting at random.

Authorities in Midland and Odessa are searching for the two shooters after reports of two separate active shootings, Midland police said.

The shooters are suspected of being in two different vehicles. Authorities say they are searching for a  USPS Postal Van and a small gold or white Toyota truck.

The shooting was first reported at a Home Depot in Odessa.
