Panic ensued at the Kings Plaza Mall in Marine Park a short time ago due to mistaken reports of an active shooter. Panic overtook many mall shoppers upon hearing a shot inside the mall – located on Avenue U and Flatbush Avenue – believing a shooter was targeting people inside the building. Police flooded the mall over the active shooter report, with dozens of officers armed with high-caliber rifles converging on the mall. Fortunately, there was no active shooter, but rather an isolated dispute. One individual was shot in the leg after being attacked during a personal dispute, and was hospitalized in stable condition. Thanks to a fast response by the NYPD, they have detained three suspects in connection. THIS INCIDENT WAS FIRST REPORTED ON THE FLATBUSH SCOOP WHATSAPP STATUS – FOLLOW THEM HERE   (YWN World Headquarters – NYC)
