Family Says Man Killed Friday at Westfield Montgomery Mall Tried to Save First Victim’s Life

The family of Malcom Winffel, who died Friday at Suburban Hospital after being shot in a Westfield Montgomery mall parking lot, says the Boyds man was killed trying to help another shooting victim.

The family set up a GoFundMe page Saturday to raise money to pay for funeral expenses.

Police said Eulalio Tordil shot Winffel and two others just before 11:15 a.m. in a parking lot near the Macy’s entrance of Westfield Montgomery mall. Police said 40 minutes after the Westfield Montgomery shootings, Tordil shot and killed 65-year-old Claudina Molina of Silver Spring in her car in an Aspen Hill shopping center parking lot.

Police said Tordil’s shooting spree began Thursday, when he allegedly shot and killed his estranged wife in the parking lot of a Prince George’s County high school.

"Tordil was on administrative leave from his job as a federal police officer after his wife alleged he had abused one of their children

"He was formally charged with two counts of first-degree murder, two counts of attempted first-degree murder and four counts of the use of a handgun in the commission of a felon for the Montgomery County incidents. He’s scheduled for an arraignment Monday afternoon."

"The incident followed a March custody case in which a judge ordered Tordil, an officer with the Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Protective Service, to surrender his firearms and stay away from his estranged wife."
