The man apparently confronted the woman as she was opening the security gate over the store, said Houston Police Lt. Albert Mihalco. The store showed signs that the two struggled before the woman was shot in the head. The man apparently killed himself, Mihalco said.

The shooting was reported at 10 a.m., and most stores were still closed.

Mall employee Deborah White said she was about to raise the security gate that covered the Ashley Stewart store where she worked when a security guard ran down the mall corridors, pounding on gates and doors and telling everyone to evacuate.

"I just left my coat and got out," White said. About a dozen people left the mall with her, mostly store employees.

The Greenspoint Mall is located a few miles from George Bush Intercontinental Airport.

HOUSTON --A man shot his girlfriend and then killed himself as she was opening a lingerie store in a Houston mall Tuesday, police said.

The man apparently confronted the woman as she was raising the security gate over the Body Luxuries store, said Houston Police Lt. Albert Mihalco. After struggling, the man moved the woman into a back room of the store and shot her in the head, Mihalco said. Seconds later, he walked behind the counter and shot himself in the head, he said.

The shooting was reported at 10 a.m., and most stores were still closed. Police armed with helmets and shields surrounded the store before discovering the bodies.

Employees said they were just starting to open their stores when a security guard and a mall Santa Claus ran down the corridors, pounding on gates and doors and telling everyone to evacuate.

"I just left my coat and got out," said store clerk Deborah White.

The Greenspoint Mall is located a few miles from George Bush Intercontinental Airport.
