DALLAS (Reuters) - A gunman killed a Walmart employee inside a North Texas store on Tuesday, then shot himself in an attempted suicide, police said.

Initial reports were that two people had been killed inside the store in Kaufman, Texas, about 30 miles southeast of Dallas.

A 59-year-old store associate was shot multiple times while working in the garden center, Kaufman Police spokesman Captain Ed Black told a news conference. The shooter, 55, was flown to a Dallas hospital. Police did not name either of the men.

The victim and suspect knew each other and were believed to have been feuding, Black said.

NO guns were responsible for these deaths. The perp could just as easily have worked with grille utensils, rat bait, replacement lawn mower blades - any number of convenient and handy items from Lawn & Garden! Who knows how that innocent death tool was there at the wrong place at the right time???
