Two police officers and a civilian were killed by two shooters in Las Vegas on Sunday, Laura Meltzer, a spokeswoman for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police, told the Las Vegas Review-Journal .
The attackers, one man and one woman, walked into a CiCi's pizza place and opened fire around 11:30 a.m. as the two officers were eating lunch, Meltzer said.
Witnesses told police that before shooting at the police officers, the man yelled: "This is the start of a revolution." The shooters then reportedly took the officer's weapons and ammunition and headed into the Walmart, The Review-Journal reports.
One officer was reportedly dead at the scene, while the other died later in surgery.

Once inside the store, the male shooter yelled, "Everyone get out!," and then started shooting, Assistant Sheriff Kevin McMahill said in a news conference. Police confirm that at least one person was shot and killed in the Walmart.
The two shooters then went to the back of the store, where they reportedly killed themselves.
"There was some sort of suicide pact," McMahill said.
