Us live from paramus. She has been there all morning and has more on the investigation. Reporter the county prosecutor here describes the shooter as someone that is depressed and despondent. He says that that was part of the reason he may have come in here not necessarily inflick harm on others but to draw not necessarily to inflict harm on others but to draw attention to himself and kill himself. Police say 20yearold Richard Shoop walked into the Garden State Plaza mall in paramus, new jersey, just before closing and opened fire. These women came face to face with the shooter. Out of nowhere, the guy walks right past the front door and he is shooting shots in the air. He paused for a second and just looked inside the store. I just froze. Reporter Police Quickly responded and s. W. A. T. Team members stormed the facility. The shooter, for whatever reason, instead of staying and fighting, fled deeper into the mall. Reporter officials put the mall in lockdown and began a methodical search for the suspect as well as anyone who may be hiding, for safety. We go store by store, room by room, and that takes quite a while in 2. 2 million square feet. Reporter authorities escorted individuals out of the store one by one as they cleared each room. Its okay to go. Reporter the cell phone video shows what it was like for the people coming out. Let me tell you, it is the scariest thing when you see the s. W. A. T. Team coming, waiting at the door for you to come out. Reporter shortly after 3 a. M. , shoop was found dead. One of the s. W. A. T. Teams located the suspect in the back room dead. Reporter Authorities Say it appears shoop was on a Suicide Mission and didnt want to hurt anyone else. Everyone made it out of the mall safely according to officials. But there is still a Police Presence here. There are still barricades around the mall because this is still a crime scene and the investigation continues. The mall remains closed for the rest of the day. Reporting live from paramus, new jersey, jericka duncan, now back to you. Do we know where that shooter got his gun . Reporter he got it from his brother according to police and really not as if his brother handed it to him. But Officials Say it appears the shooter stole the gun from his brother and that is the weapon that he used to fire at an escalator, again, not necessarily in the direction of anyone, not to harm anyone, but essentially police are saying that this was a Suicide Mission that he wanted to draw attention to himself, that he had been depressed and he had a history of drug abuse and Law Enforcement officials were familiar with him on that end. But there doesnt seem to be any methodical plan that anyone can see right now in terms of notes that he left about coming here and shooting anyone or plans to do anything elaborate but officials still wondering essentially, you know, why did he decide to come in here just to fire the shots, draw that kind of attention to himself, only to end his own life. You talked about the notes he left behind. What did the gunman say in them . Reporter the prosecutor that i spoke to, the county prosecutor, within the last hour would not give specific details. But he said it seems as though this is maybe a note that he wrote a couple of months ago. He also alluded to the fact that the shooter may have had some legal issues and was very depressed about his life and where it was heading. Only 20 years old and had had runins with the law. So there were no specifics given about what the note said. But it did give more indication into i guess how depressed he was and felt like his life really was going nowhere. Okay.
