Mosley was pronounced dead inside the store. Police said the entire incident lasted about 15 minutes and no officers were injured.
"He would shoot at officers and move. It wasn't contained to just one area inside," Evansville Police Sgt. Anna Gray said, describing the minutes-long gunfight with the shooter.
The person wounded by Mosley has not been identified. She was alive when police responded and was transported to a hospital according to police.
Evansville police officer Taylor Merriss told local news outlet WFIE Friday that Mosley "probably had some sort of relationship with the victim in terms of being a co-worker."
According to Evansville Police, there were numerous gunfights inside the Walmart store as Mosley fired at police and they fired back.
"We're at westside Walmart. There's an active shooter, active shooter 911...He shot a girl in the head...His name is Ron Mosley," a caller said In 911 audio reporting the shooting.
Another 911 caller was trying to help the shooting victim.
That caller said the victim was "shot right in the eye" and that she was "pouring blood."
In a statement to ABC News, Walmart said it was shocked "by the senseless violence that occurred at our Evansville store."
In November, six people were killed, six were hospitalized and the suspected gunman died of what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound at a Chesapeake, Va., Walmart.
