MIDLAND, Texas—The death toll in a West Texas shooting rampage increased to seven on Sunday, Sept. 1, as authorities investigated why a man stopped by state troopers for failing to signal a left turn opened fire on them and fled, shooting more than 20 people as he drove before being killed by officers outside a movie theater.
Odessa police spokesman Steve LeSueur said that at least one of the shooting victims remained in life-threatening condition. The gunman has been identified as a male in his 30s, but police have not released a name or possible motive.
