The Austin community is mourning the loss of three lives following a tragic shooting in the parking lot of a North Austin Target on Monday.

A gunman opened fire Monday in a Target store parking lot in the Texas capital, killing at least three people, then stole two cars during a getaway that ended with police using a Taser to detain him on the other side of the city, authorities said. Austin Police Chief Lisa Davis said the suspect is a man in his 30s with "a mental health history."

Austin police leaders delayed publication of a consultant report recommending the hire of more civilian staff as City Council prepares to adopt next year's budget.

Two people have died during a shooting incident at a Target located in Austin, Texas, officials said Monday afternoon.
