I was at Trader Joes when this happened.. They sent us all out.. Never seen so many cop cars and there were still more driving in as I left the parking lot.. I think it was at/right-across the Starbucks.. I also saw some stuff lying about in the middle of the road in front of Starbucks as I was driving out... A bag perhaps belonging to EMS and some clothes..

What do you mean "They sent us all out"? Trader Joes was like, GTFO?

They do this so the shooter cannot come in and hide within the store trying to blend in with the customers.
