AUSTIN, Texas - A man shot into a crowd in downtown Austin just after the bars closed, killing one woman and wounding at least four others.

The shooter is still on the loose, reports CBS affiliate KEYE-TV in Austin.

The shooting in a crowded entertainment district of the Texas capital early Sunday set off a chaotic scene, leaving one woman who was believed to be in her 20s dead and three others wounded and police searching for a suspect.

Austin Police Chief of Staff Brian Manley says police received reports of gunshots in the area of East 6th Street shortly after 2 a.m. Police arrived to find a chaotic scene and four people shot.
