DescriptionPolice have identified Jacob Tyler Roberts as the gunman who fatally shot two people at a crowded Oregon mall Tuesday before killing himself minutes later.

There is no known connection between Roberts, 22, and the Clackamas Town Center, police said Wednesday. Authorities have yet to identify a motive for the shooting and said they are still piecing together the suspect's actions leading up to it.

"At this time we do not understand the motive of this attack except to say there is no apparent relationship between the suspect and his victims," Clackamas County Sheriff Craig Roberts said at a press conference.

According to the sheriff, investigators have executed a search of the suspect's home at 7324 South East 84th Ave. in Portland and his 1996 VW Jetta that was found in the mall parking lot.
