Indiana shopping mall shooter shot dead by armed 'good Samaritan,' police say
At least four people, including the shooter, are dead and others are injured following a shooting at a shopping mall in the suburbs of Indianapolis, according to local reports.
Greenwood Chief James Ison said "a good Samaritan with a handgun" at the scene killed the shooter. He said two others were wounded and are being treated in area hospitals.
It's worth noting how much difference one armed good Samaritan can make. There might have been dozens killed while police were arriving, and planning, and staging. But one properly armed and trained individual saved all those lives by simply being there with a legally owned hand gun.
