Shooting at grocery store in south Arkansas kills 2 and wounds 8 others, police say

A shooter who opened fire Friday at a grocery store in Arkansas left the store and parked cars riddled with bullet holes as bystanders ducked for cover both indoors and in the parking lot, killing 3 people and wounding 10 others, authorities said.

The wounded included two law enforcement officers who exchanged fire with the shooter, state police said. The shooting occurred about 11:30 a.m. at the Mad Butcher grocery store in Fordyce, a city of about 3,200 people located 65 miles (104 kilometers) south of Little Rock.

It's tragic, our hearts are broken, Col. Mike Hagar, director of State Police and public safety secretary, told reporters Friday.
