Earlier Saturday, police said a suspect was arrested at the Midland Cinergy movie theater near I-20. CBS 7 reports two gunmen started shooting people together, then split up.

It is unclear if the suspect taken into custody at the Midland movie theater is connected to the shooter killed at the movie theater in Odessa.

Earlier Saturday, the Texas Department of Public Safety was urging the public to avoid I-20 in Odessa, Midland and Big Spring as authorities searched for two active shooters who shot several people, including a state police officer.

The Odessa Police Department said the "suspect just hijacked a U.S. mail carrier" and was "shooting at random people."
