Two people were injured on Saturday in a shooting at East Towne Mall that sent a panic through shoppers and closed the mall six days before Christmas.

Police spokesman Joel DeSpain said one person was transported to the hospital with a leg wound after a dispute between two groups of teenage males at the mall turned violent.

“We don’t believe this is related to terrorism. This was obviously not a mass shooting. This is not an active shooter,” DeSpain said. “This is an incident where we had young people as we have seen in many areas of the city who were in a dispute and one of them pulled out a firearm and unfortunately shot a gun in the middle of East Towne Mall on the busiest shopping day of the year.”
