A gunman has been killed after murdering five people in a shooting spree in a Salt Lake City shopping mall.
Others were injured when the man - wearing a trench coat - went on the rampage at the Trolley Square Mall in the city's downtown area.
Details of the gunman's death were not disclosed, but the city's Deseret Morning News said on its website he was killed by an off-duty police officer who was in the mall at the time.
Antique shop owner Barrett Dodds, 29, said he saw a man exchanging gunfire with a police officer outside a card store.
The gunman was backed into a children's clothing store, he said. "I saw the cops go in the store. I saw the shooter go down."
The two-storey Trolley Square Mall has about 80 stores.
"We have six fatalities and multiple victims at hospitals," police Detective Robin Snyder said.
" They were found throughout the mall. I don't know male or females ages."
