A Target employee hid in the changing rooms of a store in Omaha, Nebraska, during a shooting incident on Tuesday, January 31, local media reported.
Local media reported that Elianne Robinson, who was working at the store, messaged her sister, Kaley Schlueter, with a video at around 12:13 pm local time, saying, “There’s a shooting in my Target. I’m in the fitting room. He shot so much, I don’t know if he’s killed anyone.”
At 12:38 pm, Robinson told Schlueter she was OK, the report added.
The Omaha Police Department said that county, state and federal agencies responded to a report of an active shooter inside the Target at 11:59 am.
