Eight dead, 22 wounded in Texas shooting spree

(NBC News) A gunman and seven victims are dead after a shooting rampage Saturday in Odessa, Texas.

The gunman has been identified as 36-year-old Seth Ator.

A state trooper pulled Ator over on Interstate 20 Saturday. Ator opened fire, and took off on a ten mile shooting spree, targeting people at 15 different locations.

At one point, Ator killed a letter carrier and stole her van to continue the attack.

Shauna Saxton came face-to-face with the killer and lived.

“I feel so lucky that wasn’t hurt, and I’m so sad inside because I knew what was coming toward people and I couldn’t help them,” she says.

More than 20 survivors are being treated for gunshot wounds, including a 17-month-old girl who was shot in the mouth.

Police caught up with the shooter at a movie theater and killed him in an exchange of gunfire.
