A MAN shot and killed his ex-girlfriend in the cosmetics department of an up-market store during Black Friday sales before taking his own life. Chicago Fire Department paramedics were called to the Nordstrom store in Chicago after a report of two people shot, said Chicago Fire Department Spokesman Larry Langford. Shoppers were sent into a panic when they heard gunfire from the second floor of the department storm. Hundreds of shoppers were in the store at the time as people tried to snap up Black Friday bargains. Paramedics transported the woman to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, where she was pronounced dead, while the man was dead at the scene, said Mr Langford. "Two people were shot at that location and police are investigating," said Police Spokesman Thomas Sweeney. It was a pow and a pow. It was a stampede coming down the escalator," Michelle Smith, 47 told the Chicago Tribune. Sources said the incident appeared to be a domestic-related incident near the cosmetics department in the upscale department store. According to sources, a man shot a female and then turned the gun on himself in a murder-suicide. The man was dead at the scene and the woman was in critical condition.
