A gunman opened fire in a mall crowded with Christmas shoppers here Tuesday afternoon, killing at least two people and sending at least one person to a hospital before being found dead, according to the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office.

据克拉克默斯县警长办公室介绍，周二下午，一名持枪者在波特兰一个挤满圣诞购物者的商场内开枪，造成至少两人当场死亡，至少一人在送往医院救治后被发现死亡。

The attack at about 3:30 p.m. in the Clackamas Town Center sent hundreds of shoppers and merchants running for cover as the gunman wielding an apparent assault rifle fired off what witnesses on Twitter and on local television stations described as about 60 shots.

枪击案发生在周二下午大约3时30分，地点是克拉克默斯镇中心(Clackamas Town Center)。在枪手挥舞着表面看来是突击步枪的武器的同时，数百名购物者和商家四处逃窜寻找掩护。据当地电视台和目击者在推特(Twitter)上的描述，这名枪手大约发射了60枚子弹。

In a press conference, Lt. James Rhodes of Clackamas County Sheriff's Office said the male shooter had been found dead after police, responding to numerous 911 calls, stormed into the mall.

在资讯发布会上，克拉克默斯县警长办公室的罗德(James Rhodes)说，在警方接到数通报警电话冲进商场时，这名男性持枪者已被发现死亡。

Lt. Rhodes declined to provide details such as how the man died, what he was wearing or what kind of weapon he used. He said preliminary indications were the gunman apparently acted alone.

罗德拒绝提供有关细节，比如这名男子如何死亡，他穿的是什么，他使用的是什么样的武器等。他说初步迹象表明，枪手显然是单独行动的。

Lt. Rhodes said nearly 100 officers from multiple jurisdictions remained on the scene of the mall, going from store to store helping to evacuate people still in hiding. Officers had evacuated hundreds of people and estimated 'somewhat less than that' remained hunkered down inside.

罗德说，来自多个司法管辖区的近100名警官留在商场，他们对每个店铺进行逐一走访，疏散那些仍在躲藏的群众。警官已经疏散了数百名购物者，估计仍躲藏在店铺内的人数不如已被疏散的多。

'We will search this entire mall until we are certain it is secure,' Lt. Rhodes said.

罗德说，我们将搜查整个商场，直到确保其安全为止。

Merchants in the mall reached by phone declined to comment.

记者电话联系了商场中的商户，但他们拒绝置评。
