奥马哈警方于周二开枪击毙一名女子，警方称该女子在超市内从另一名女性手中带走一名幼童后，在沃尔玛超市外持刀将其砍伤。
副局长斯科特·格雷称，嫌疑人靠近一名女性购物者和一名2至3岁的男童，亮出她从店内偷来的一把大刀，“带走了这名儿童，本质上属于绑架”。
格雷表示，嫌疑人让该女子走在购物车前，自己则持刀押着幼童跟在后面。两人离开超市，沿着一条车道行走，期间两名女性“互相争执了几分钟”，直到警方赶到。
格雷称，警方接到911报警电话后抵达沃尔玛超市外，向嫌疑人发出指令，此时嫌疑人开始“挥刀砍向儿童，割伤了他的脸部”，并补充说这段砍人过程被录像记录下来。至少一名警员向嫌疑人开枪，嫌疑人当场身亡。
警方公布的随身摄像机画面显示，当时一名女警正举枪对准该女子，而她正将刀举过坐在购物车内的幼童头顶。

格雷称，该幼童因脸部左侧和其中一只手部有“相当大的伤口”正在医院接受治疗，预计可以康复。
目前尚不清楚嫌疑人的作案动机。格雷表示，两名女性此前并不认识，幼童与其看护者的关系也尚不明确，嫌疑人的身份尚未立即披露。
警方正在调取超市内的监控录像。格雷称，此次事件看起来是一起孤立案件。他表示，在警方继续调查期间，沃尔玛超市内大部分区域仍处于空荡状态。
他还称，超市内发生的这一幕不一定会引起其他购物者的注意。
“他们当时只是刻意却又随意地走出超市，所以我认为当时没人觉得他们有任何可疑之处。”格雷说道。
此次警方枪击事件将由奥马哈警方联合内布拉斯加州州警以及萨皮县警长办公室进行调查。
Woman killed by police at Omaha Walmart after allegedly kidnapping, slashing child
April 14, 2026 / 8:55 PM EDT / CBS/AP
Omaha police on Tuesday shot and killed a woman they say slashed a young boy with a knife outside of a Walmart after taking him from another woman inside the store.
The suspect approached a female shopper and a 2- or 3-year-old boy, then displayed a large knife she had shoplifted from the store and “took possession of the child, essentially kidnapping the child,” Deputy Chief Scott Gray said.
The suspect told the woman to walk in front of the shopping cart, and she followed with the child at knifepoint, Gray said. They proceeded out of the store and down a driveway where the two women had “some verbal back and forth” for several minutes until officers arrived, Gray said.
After receiving a 911 call, police arrived outside the Walmart and gave the suspect commands, at which point she began “swiping the knife at the child, cutting him across the face, ” Gray said, adding the slashing was captured on video. At least one officer fired at the suspect, and she died at the scene.
Body-worn camera images police released show the woman raising a knife over the young boy sitting in a shopping cart as the officer aims a gun at her.

The child was being treated at a hospital for a “rather large laceration” across the left side of his face and to one of his hands, Gray said. He is expected to survive.
It is unclear what provoked the suspect. Gray said the two women did not know each other. The relationship between the boy and his caretaker wasn’t clear. The suspect was not immediately identified.
Police are reviewing video from the store. The event appears to be an isolated incident, Gray said. The Walmart was largely empty as police continued their investigation, he said.
The actions inside the store wouldn’t necessarily have drawn attention from other shoppers, he said.
“They kind of just purposely but casually walk out of the store, so I don’t think anybody was actually looking at them as being a suspect of anything,” Gray said.
The police shooting will be investigated by Omaha police with help from the Nebraska State Patrol and the Sarpy County Sheriff’s Office.
