2 Dead, 2 Injured in Maryland Shootings; Police Probe Link to Earlier Incident

Three people have been shot at the Westfield Montgomery Mall in Bethesda, Maryland, and another killed at a nearby grocery store, with police suggesting that one or both incidents may be related to a deadly shooting in the area yesterday.
The Montgomery County Police Department said one person was shot at the Westfield Montgomery Mall in Bethesda, Maryland, today after an argument, and then two people who came to the victim's aid were also shot. The suspect remains at large, according to police.
One of the victims has died; another is in critical condition and the third suffered non-life-threatening injuries, Montgomery County police said.
Meanwhile, a woman was killed this morning in a shooting at a Giant grocery store in the Aspen Hill area, about 8 miles away from the mall.
The Prince George's County Police Department said today it's "looking into the possibility" that Eulalio Tordil, a man wanted for allegedly shooting and killing his estranged wife Thursday in the parking lot of High Point High School in Beltsville, was also the shooter in Montgomery County this morning. Police did not immediately say which of the today's two Montgomery County shootings Tordil may be connected to or whether he could be connected to both.
