Pittsburgh mall shooting suspect identified from Instagram post

The suspected gunman in a suburban Pittsburgh mall shooting handed investigators a vital clue when he posted a photo of himself on Instagram just hours before he opened fire in a shopping center, wounding three, authorities said Tarod Thornhill, 17, was wearing the same clothes in the social media post as the shooter captured on surveillance camera footage of the chaotic attack at the Monroeville Mall. The teen pulled a pistol on Saturday and fired wildly in the busy shopping center, striking a rival along with a man and woman walking past with a child, authorities said.
