Shoppers are evacuated when gunfire has been reported on Monday (7 hours) at the Federal Way Wal-Mart store in a small town in southwest Seattle, Washington, where 22 people were killed in gunfire after El Paso's Wal-Mart fire in Texas. What happened was reported by local KIRO 7 Seattle broadcasters.
The case was reported after police reported a man threatening shoppers in Wal-Mart stores that appears to have a pistol on the afternoon of July 7.
The mobile phone video obtained by KIRO 7 shows that Wal-Mart employees and shoppers wander outside the store with anxiety and police cars line up.
One shopper told the broadcast, "The store side told all shoppers to go out on the internal interphone."
The Federal Way police said it was true that men, estimated to be 35-45 years old, had guns into their stores, but it was not confirmed whether they threatened shoppers with guns.
Federal Way is a small town of 90,000 people, 35 kilometers south of Seattle. Many Koreans are known to live there.
Police searched inside Wal-Mart stores for firearms and explosives, KIRO 7 said.
