AT SIX. POLICE SAY NO ONE WAS
HURT, BUT THE ALLEGED SHOOTER
REMAINS ON THE RUN. IT HAPPENED
OUTSIDE THEM ALL AROUND TO THIS
AFTERNOON, RIGHT NEAR THE DICK’S
SPORTING GOODS STORE. VICTOR
WILLIAMS JOINS US LIVE WITH AN
UPDATE AND A SEARCH FOR THAT
SHOOTER, VICTOR. POLICE ARE
STILL LOOKING FOR THE SHOOTER AS
WELL AS ALL THE SUSPECTS
INVOLVED. WE’RE TOLD THAT THIS
WAS AN ALTERCATION THAT STARTED
INSIDE THE MALL BUT THEN SPILLED
OUT INTO THE PARKING LOT. SOME
SHOPPERS ARE JUST HAPPY THEY’RE
STILL HERE. I JUST PRAYED QUITE
A BIT. I THOUGHT MAYBE TODAY WAS
GONNA BE THAT DAY. LISA RICHARDS
THOUGHT SHE WAS GOING TO DIE
AFTER A SHOOTING TOOK PLACE IN
FRONT OF THE MACOMB MALL AROUND
2 15 SUNDAY AFTERNOON SUNDAY
AFTERNOON. PEOPLE WERE IN THERE
TRYING TO RELAX AND THEN
SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPENS AND
I THOUGHT TO MYSELF, WE JUST
CAN’T GO ANYWHERE NOW WITHOUT
FEELING SAFE. POLICE CHIEF RYAN
MONROE SAYS THE GUNFIRE ERUPTED
WHEN TWO GROUPS OF PEOPLE GOT
INTO IT AND TOOK THEIR PROBLEMS
OUT INTO THE PARKING LOT. ONE
MALE. FIRES A COUPLE OF ROUNDS
INTO THE AIR, POSSIBLY TOWARDS
ONE OF THE CARS WERE STILL
INVESTIGATING. NO ONE’S IN
CUSTODY. NO ONE’S BEEN INJURED.
LISA REMEMBERS EXACTLY WHERE SHE
WAS. WHEN THAT HAPPENED. I WAS
IN THE GOOD HEALTH MASSAGE PLACE
GETTING A MASSAGE LAYING ON THE
TABLE WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I
HEARD ALL KINDS OF COMMOTION.
POLICE CARS. POLICE DOGS BARKING
FROM THERE, THE MALL WENT INTO
LOCKDOWN MODE, TURNING INTO AN
INTENSE SITUATION FOR SHOPPERS.
OFFICERS WERE RUNNING THROUGH
THE MALL. IT WAS VERY, VERY
SCARY. SHOPPERS HAD TO WAIT IN
THE BACK OF STORES BEFORE BEING
TAKEN THROUGH AN EMERGENCY EXIT
. WE WENT DOWN A HALLWAY AND
ENDED UP OUTSIDE BY SOME
DUMPSTERS AS POLICE INVESTIGATED
SEVERAL PEOPLE NEARBY WERE
STOPPED FOR QUESTIONING. WE GET
A DESCRIPTION OF WHO’S INVOLVED.
WE DETAINED A FEW PEOPLE JUST TO
INVESTIGATE TO PUT THEIR STORY
TOGETHER, BUT WE HAVE WE DON’T
HAVE ANYBODY IN CUSTODY AT THIS
TIME. WE’RE TOLD IT’S JUST A
MATTER OF TIME BEFORE COPS HAVE
THE ACTUAL SUSPECTS IN HANDCUFFS
. THERE’S CAMERAS ALL OVER THE
PARKING LOT, SO I’M SURE IT JUST
TAKES TIME TO GET ALL THE
FOOTAGE DOWNLOADED THAT WE CAN.
WE CAN LOOK OUT. AND WITH TODAY
BEING SUNDAY, ONE OF THE BUSIEST
DAYS FOR THE MALL. IT’S A
MIRACLE THAT NO ONE WAS HURT.
