According to CNN Police have finally arrested a 15-year-old Milwaukee boy in connection with a shooting at Mayfair Mall, Friday, that left 7 adults and 1 teen injured. Wauwatosa Police Chief Barry Weber said the shooting at Mayfair Mall was “not random but an altercation between two groups.”
Weber gave no further information on the suspect, saying the investigation into the incident was ongoing and that the weapon was recovered at the scene. The shooter was no longer at Mayfair Mall when Wauwatosa police officers arrived, Weber said Friday. But they were informed that it was a white male.
Wauwatosa Mayor Dennis McBride told CNN about 75 police officers responded to the mall Friday night.
While none of the injuries that occurred were life threatening, the entire incident was life threatening to many. Many families, couples, kids, men and women were out shopping at this time. No matter what happened, the flying bullets were sure to scare everyone.
As soon as the incident occurred, social media went crazy. Many people made post about checking on your loved ones. Lots of people also warned others not to come to Mayfair Mall because there was an active shooter.
With all the craziness going on in the world this event was still extremely shocking. It makes you wonder where will you truly be safe? How do you protect yourself? What if you were there? What would you have done? How would you have reacted?
