A transitional agreement between military rulers and opposition groups is finalized. But it will begin with breaking news police in the u. S. Are responding to reports of a shooting in El Paso Texas thats been taking place in the. Mall in the city epic that would be warned to stay away from the area while the fisher is monitoring this and is joining us live now from washington d. C. So its been a fast moving situation bring us up to date the latest. Well let me give you more weve gained in the last 20 minutes since our last update the mayor of el paso de marco has confirmed there are multiple fatalities we are told that 18 people have been taken to hospital with injuries ranging from minor to critical its thought that the dead are among the was 18 there is a fleet of ambulances come early carrying people away from this mall area its a Large Shopping Center just on the outskirts of el paso about 34 kilometers away from the airport theres 140 stores there were also had just in the last couple of minutes or so there are reports locally that one person has been taken into custody clearly the police are continuing their operation there just in the last half hour or so they put out a tweet saying that they had reports of multiple gunman firing at multiple targets no theres no confirmation and often in these cases and this show reports tend to be confused sometimes the wrong just to reiterate overhead just the last minute or so one person is currently in custody no we know that a number of agencies responded when the reports of the shooting were broadcast this includes alcohol tobacco and firearms which is a federal agency the f. B. I. A number of local Police Services as well including the county and the town el paso is a border area there are a lot of agencies who are based there because of what is going on at the border so they were able to respond swat teams then moved in these are specialist units with officers who are trained specifically in firearms and also in situations of this kind their priority in this situation would be to locate the gunman or gunmen they would then sweep through the area and were talking about a very a lot indeed and then it would be. To get the wounded the injured the help that the require know they have been this operation has been going on for just over 2 hours we are told that all 18 of those who are currently being treated for injuries of some description were in a Walmart Store which is a big u. S. Chain but there were reports of shootings in other parts of busy the mall know we have seen pictures of people in one chain store where they were held in place the police not alone them to leave the store believing that was the safest place for them at that point and weve also seen pictures from other parts of the Shopping Center where people have with their hands up been led by armed police away from the immediate vicinity but just to recap what we have heard in the last few moments the mayor of el paso has confirmed there are a number of fatalities were told that 18 people have been taken to a hospital and there are reports just in the last few minutes or so that one person is in custody as you mentioned one person in custody and as you were saying earlier that doesnt necessarily mean that this is it is interesting that they do seem to be different approaches as you say in terms of when were looking at some pictures and save people being led out of the heart in the air this is a huge Shopping Mall isnt it so how difficult is it to clear an area like that quickly. Well even if you have multiple agencies and multiple sort teams there it is going to be difficult because you dont want to leave any part of any store uncovered and i say youve got 140. 00 stores here reports of multiple shooters sometimes as i say these are confused but the police have got to take every single report they hear as serious though the reality is the situation like this people panic they get confused if someone hears a gunshot over here they may well hear the echo from over there and suddenly think there is more than one gunman one more person with a weapon in that immediate area and so this is going to be a fairly long process even with their resources that have been diverted to that area roads leading up to the mall have been closed certainly the ambulances have been able to get there is to see if we have ambulances a country taking the injured to a number of hospitals to repeat were told that there are injuries ranging from the minor to the critical and the mayor has said that there are multiple fatalities it comes of course less than 6 days after there was a shooting at a festival in california there 3 people were killed and then the gunman turned the gun on himself obviously the situation is very fluid the police dont have all the information from the situation they are gathering that at the moment and what expecting a briefing from the police from the f. B. I. And from the District Attorney at some point within the next hour in el paso and efficient thank you very much indeed.
