A person with a gun opened fire on Monday evening in a massive New Jersey shopping mall shortly before closing time, leading police to evacuate the mall and search for the shooter, but no injuries were reported, officials said.
The mayor of Paramus, New Jersey, where the Garden State Plaza mall is located, said that one shot had been confirmed. CNN, citing witnesses, reported that the shooter had fired at security cameras.
"We had a confirmed single shot," Mayor Richard LaBarbiera told reporters.
Other eye-witnesses said there were several shots fire.
"A gunman who sparked panic, but caused no casualties when he opened fire inside a Paramus, New Jersey mall Monday night was found dead early Tuesday morning of a self-inflicted gunshot wound."
ReplyDeleteDoes this mean it will now be called the Paramus mall suicide instead of the Paramus mall shooting? Sounds like he was trolling for a cop to shoot him.
I agree, suicide by cop.
