Associated Press

   SOUTHAVEN, MISS. - A sheriff says one person is dead and a suspect was
   shot at a Walmart in the northern Mississippi city of Southaven.

   DeSoto County Sheriff Bill Rasco told WHBQ-TV that one person was
   killed and the suspect was shot.
   The shooting prompted a sizeable law enforcement response, with
   officers setting up a perimeter and entering the Walmart Supercenter.
   A woman answering the phone at the Southaven Police Department Tuesday
   morning said "we have ongoing emergencies" and no one was available to
   provide information.
