Five people were injured on Saturday after a man drove his pickup truck through the glass doors of a J.C. Penney in a mall in Killeen, Texas, and continued to drive through the store before he was shot and killed by the police, the authorities said.

At about 5 p.m., the driver, whose identity was not released, was in a black pickup truck when officers tried to stop him for possible drunken driving, said Sgt. Bryan Washko with the Texas Department of Public Safety.

Instead of stopping, the driver got off the highway, drove to the parking lot of the Killeen Mall and smashed his car through the doors of the J.C. Penney, Sergeant Washko said.

The man drove through the mall and hit multiple people, five of whom had injuries that were minor to severe, Sergeant Washko said.

“He traveled several hundred yards,” Sergeant Washko said. “There’s officers from D.P.S., the Killeen Police Department and three other agencies that engaged in gunfire to eliminate this threat to the community.”

Those injured ranged from 6 to 75 years old, Sergeant Washko said.

The episode was originally reported as a shooting but only the driver was shot, Seargeant Washko said.
