OMAHA, Neb. (AP) â A shooting at a Nebraska mall left one person dead and another wounded as terrified shoppers ran for cover.
Authorities believe the shooting at Westroads Mall in Omaha was an isolated incident, and not a random attack.
Police determined the suspects had fled the scene after searching the mall, according to Omaha police Lt. Neal Bonacci. Officers first gave the âall clearâ around 1 p.m. â about an hour after multiple shots were fired, The Omaha World-Herald reports.
