GREENWOOD, Ind. — Police are investigating a shooting at Greenwood Park Mall that happened around 6 p.m. Sunday.

Four people are dead and two others wounded in the shooting. Police tell 13News the shooter is among those dead.

Greenwood Chief James Ison said two others were wounded in the shooting and are being treated at area hospitals.

Ison said a good Samaritan witnessed the shooting and shot and killed the shooter.
Chalk one up for the good guys.

Let's hope we don't get some Jose Alba situation where they try to charge him for defending himself and others.

Don’t Toby Keith and Willie Nelson suggest that we put a few more in the ground. That works for me. I also believe that if jail was more like jail, there would be less people in there. Jail should be hell.

One of two things.

Either gang related, or the usual narcissist incel with an axe to grind against society, complete with social media rantings and ravings and posed pictures with guns.

So utterly predictable.

Thank God for that good Samaritan. As horrible as this was, it could have been even worse if he had not acted.

Why is he a Good Samaritan? Why isn't it a good gun? Why doesn't the gun get the credit? It takes the blame when bad things happen and government wants to take them away...

It wasn't a Good Samaritan... it was a Good Gun. Let's get it right.

While it is great that an armed civilian was able to put the perp down before he got to far, he was still able to kill three people and wound two more. I wouldn't be celebrating.
