TWO men and a woman have been killed in a shooting inside a Denver Walmart on Wednesday that forced customers to either hide of flee.

Thornton police reported “multiple parties down” and advised people to stay away from the area as dozens of police cars and emergency vehicles raced to the scene.

The men died at the store, and the woman died at a hospital, officers said.

Police spokesman Victor Avila said a man nonchalantly entered the store and fired a handgun into a group of people before fleeing in a car. No one has been arrested.

“This is a very heinous act,” Avila said. “We don’t know exactly what the motive of the person was, but it was certainly a terrible act.”

Aaron Stephens, 44, was in the self-checkout line when he heard a single shot followed by two more bursts of gunfire before people started running for the exits.

“The employees started screaming. Customers were screaming. They were running like crazy, and I ran out too because I didn’t want to get killed,” he said.

Guadalupe Perez was inside the store with her young son when she heard what she thought was a balloon popping.
