Due to the incident resulting in a police-involved shooting, the Pima County Sheriff's Department is leading the investigation, Magos said.

Tucson Mayor Regina Romero released a statement on Sunday, condemning the shooting as \"another serious and senseless act of gun violence.\"

\"A shooter recklessly began shooting in a crowded area, striking nine people before being stopped by a Tucson Police Officer,\" Romero said, in part.

\"As we all know too well, the impact resulting from this act of gun violence reaches beyond the scene and the victims,\" Romero added. \"It affects all of us: family and friends, first responders, the witnesses, our entire community. We know these moments leave a lasting impression on us and our sense of safety.\"

\"I’m heartbroken to learn that nine people were shot early this morning in downtown Tucson,\" former U.S. Rep. Gabby Giffords wrote in a statement Sunday in response to the attacks.

\"Too many lives have been changed forever because of America’s gun violence crisis, in my hometown and across the nation. Mark and I are grateful for the bravery of Tucson’s first responders as we await more information and hold all those impacted in our hearts,\" added Giffords, who survived an assassination attempt in January 2011 when she was shot in the head at an event near Tucson, an attack that killed six people.
