I did a screenshot of the addy stated in this MSM article... http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/20...ct.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

When I looked at Google Street maps the addy (which is approximate) shows a person that appears to be getting ready to leave or has just arrived on a motorcycle. He's wearing a helmet (can't see his face) and has a black/white backpack.

"......in Teaneck early Tuesday morning and encountered his father, Charles Shoop, who dropped to the ground and told police he was not armed before shouting, "Is this because of my son Richard at the mall? I am heartbroken over this! He called me! This is my f–king kid! You have no f–king idea what I’m going through! Just imagine if this was one of your kids." end quote

IMO, there is little a parent can do about an unstable adult child. Yes, you can call authorities, but unless they've (mentally ill relative) done something illegal or are threatening someone, the authorities will probably not have them committed.

Sad for this guy's family; but I am glad today that no one was hurt or killed.

Very very sad and tragic end to a troubled young man. I'm so thankfully he didn't harm anyone else,

Authorities: Suspect in NJ mall shooting is dead

SAMANTHA HENRY, AP

PARAMUS, N.J. (AP) — A 20-year-old gunman intent on dying fired multiple shots inside New Jersey's largest shopping mall, trapping hundreds of customers and employees for hours as police scoured stores for the shooter, who was found dead early Tuesday of a self-inflicted wound, authorities said. There were no other injuries.

Investigators don't believe the gunman, identified as 20-year-old Richard Shoop of Teaneck, intended to shoot anyone when he began firing at the ceiling and elsewhere at the Garden State Plaza on Monday night shortly before the mall's closing time, Bergen County Prosecutor John Molinelli said.

"We think he went in with the intent that he was not going to come out alive," Molinelli said.

He said Shoop was known to authorities and had had a problem with drugs, but he did not elaborate...
