Police shot dead a gunman after responding to a 911 call of a man with a gun at a Martin's Supermarket in Elkhart, Indiana at 10 pm Wednesday night.

Elkhart Police said that they responded to the call and officers were entering the building when they heard a gunshot inside the huge, mostly deserted supermarket, they rushed to the location of the shot in time to see the shooter taking aim at another victim. The gunman saw the police and turned and aimed at them, but Elkhart Police managed to shoot and kill the armed suspect.

Authorities would find two dead, gunshot victims in the store 12 aisles apart, one woman was a 20-year-old employee of the store, and the other was a 44-year-old shopper there. Police in the northern Indiana town, just south of the Indiana-Michigan border, say that they do not believe that the shooter knew either of his victims and was randomly shooting at whoever he saw in the nearly empty store.

The gunman was armed with a semi-automatic pistol, a knife was also found near the downed shooter.

Indiana State Police are investigating the shooting by the Elkhart Police and are not revealing any more information in the investigation as yet, although they did disclose that the 22-year-old shooter lived nearby.
