Police do not currently have an ID on the suspect, but he is a black male within the ages of 35 to 40. He was armed with a rifle and a handgun.
Dalgleish confirmed the following after a series of questions was directed to him:
TPD is unaware if the shooter was a patient, nor are they aware of any body armor being used.
Both weapons were fired.
They were not aware if he was targeting a specific person, this is still under investigation.
The second floor houses an orthopedic area, but TPD does not know if it is the whole floor.
Officers were able to go floor to floor and clear the building with the aid of other agencies.
TPD’s recent active shooter training was still fresh on their minds, but it is a topic TPD revisits regularly.
Overall, Dalgleish said he was very happy with TPD’s 3-minute response time, as well as the response and aid of every agency who helped today.
