On Saturday, the Tinley Park police found five women shot to death in a Lane Bryant store in a suburban Chicago strip mall.

The police arrived at the store after receiving a call about multiple shots victims in the Brookside Marketplace shopping center.

"Responding units entered the store and discovered multiple victims who'd been shot and killed," Tinley Park Police Sgt. T.J. Grady said at a news conference about 2 p.m.

The police officials said that the suspect, who as described as an African-American man, about 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighing between 230 and 260 pounds, has fled the area.

“No motive has been established,”' Grady said according to Associated Press. “Every store was immediately canvassed and a search by air, too, has given us every indication that the offender has left the scene.” The police didn’t revealed the identity of the victims.

According to The Chicago Tribue, Will County State's Attorney James Glasgow headed to the scene Saturday afternoon to discuss the case with his top criminal prosecutor, who was there talking to officials.
