It looks like it was actually at Azana Spa, across the street from Brookfield Square.

But wait a minute....!!!!

Azana is posted!! How did the guy have a gun when it's posted? Those signs prevent things like this from happening, don't they?:confused:

I saw over on another forum (ar15) that a woman apparently ran across the street into the mall saying the shooter was her father / stepfather. I have no other relevant info atm.

Locals just reported that it was in fact most likely a domestic situation - breakup/divorce....suspect has a restraining order against him. Came in looking for his wife, a hair stylist there.

:uhoh: :mad: :cuss:
My first reaction on seeing the title of this thread was "not again?!"
I'm sorry the people got hurt.
Seriously, there are very few people I'd wish pain & suffering upon.

I hope the people injured sue the spa for not providing a safe environment.
After all, once they posted they lost immunity.
Maybe the spa can get replacement signs, since the ones they bought were obviously defective.

Or maybe people might consider getting their cephalos out of their caudals & realize that signs don't stop bad people!

More news coverage:

This seems to be the most complete & detailed so far:
http://brookfield.fox6now.com/news/...pital-lockdown-after-azana-salon-spa-shooting
They say that even the hospital is locked down - nobody in or out w/o a police escort.
the suspect is described as a black man who is 6’1″ tall, weighing 270 pounds. The man is reportedly bald with brown eyes. Police say he was seen driving a 2003 black Mazda

When are people going to learn? :uhoh:
Laws & signs don't stop bad people from doing bad things,
they only make life easier for the bad people who plan to do bad things.

The latest from WTMJ on-air:
His name is Radcliffe Haughton, male black, bald, 6'1", 270lb.
And yes, he had an order of protection which prohibited him from having firearms. [Issued 18OCT12]
http://wcca.wicourts.gov/
Injunction issued effective to: OCTOBER 18, 2016.
No Domestic Abuse / No Residence / No Contact.
Respondent prohibited from possessing a firearm until the expiration date of this Injunction and further Court Order. Firearms to be delivered to Sheriff.
Respondent given copy of Injunction in Court. Filed, Injunction (Domestic Abuse)
If they catch him after this incident, I wonder if they'll re-start the 2 DC charges against him?

ETA: picture available here

Can anyone clue me in where the No Weapons is posted?
I don't see it unless it's the writing underneath what looks to be the hours on the door.
When was that taken? If it's on their website, it could very well be pre-cc.
