Yawn:

Omaha police said nine people were dead, including the alleged shooter, after shots were fired inside the Von Maur store at Westroads Mall on Wednesday afternoon. Five more were injured, two critically, police said. Police asked family members to go to the Hampton Inn at Westroads to learn more from police. The police chaplain was seen arriving there after 4 p.m. Wednesday to meet with family members and officers who responded.

The shooter at Westroads Mall was identified as Robert A. Hawkins of Bellevue, according to the Sarpy County Sheriff’s Department, and a suicide note said he was going to be famous. Hawkins, 19, had been arrested on a couple of misdemeanors in November and was due in court this month.

Well I guess he got what he was looking for. Robert Hawkins, now officially an hero.
