Five Dead In West Texas Shooting Following Police Chase

MIDLAND, Texas (AP) – At least five people are dead in West Texas after a man stopped by state troopers for failing to signal a left turn opened fire and fled. Authorities say the gunman shot more than 20 people as he drove before being killed by officers outside a movie theater. Police in Odessa plan a Sunday morning news conference to update the investigation into the chaotic rampage during which the suspect hijacked a mail carrier truck and fired at random as he drove in the area of Odessa and Midland. The two cities are in the heart of Texas oil country, more than 300 miles west of Dallas. Police have only identified the gunman as a man in his 30s and have not offered a motive.
