Gunman opens fire at Oregon mall, several people shot: officials

PORTLAND, Oregon (Reuters) - A gunman opened fire at an Oregon shopping mall outside of Portland on Tuesday and multiple people were believed to have been shot and wounded, authorities said.

The gunman remained at large at the Clackamas Town Center near the Portland suburb of Happy Valley, said Steve Campbell, spokesman for the city.

"There is an active shooter at the Clackamas Town Center," Campbell said.

The Oregonian newspaper reported on its website that two people had been killed by a man using a semiautomatic rifle who may have also been wearing body armor. The paper said the shooting occurred near the mall's food court.

A spokeswoman for the mall, which was placed on lock down, said she had no immediate information and directed calls to law enforcement.
