(Reuters) - Two people were injured in a shooting at suburban Kansas City shopping mall late Saturday afternoon, prompting a lockdown of the shopping center, police said.

Neither person's injuries are life-threatening, Independence Police Sgt. John Cato said at a press briefing.

Cato said one person was in custody, others were released after questioning, and one suspect was still being sought. Cato said an argument between two people preceded the shootings.

Cato could not say if the shooter and victims knew one another.

The 4:30 pm. shootings happened near a Sears store in the Independence Center mall. Several shots were fired, sending shoppers fleeing for safety, several witnesses told local television stations.

I heard people came in angry because they were overcharging for Watermelon and Grape soda across the street.

Im sorry you are so jealous of Cassel.

I'm sorry you wish you could be half the man he is.

I apologize that you will never have the success or happiness that Mark Castle has in life.

A friend of mine is the manager at a store there. She had to lock herself and the other employees and customers in the store. Apparently the shooting happened as the groups were passing each other on the escalators.

So is Independence Mall some gang-infested hellhole now?

Somebody had to take the place of Bannister.

Heh, not quite. I was there a few weeks ago over the holidays. Seemed like a typical suburban mall to me.


This is partially why they have stopped building enclosed malls. Most of the new ones are open air now. Enclosed malls became teen/thug/loiter handouts.

"now"

It's not exactly Bannister, but it has been deteriorating for years.

Sorry to hear that. When I visit, that's one of the places I like to hit for Chiefs stuff shopping.

Broadway safer than Independence Center.

If they'd shut down the KFC in the mall there'd be a lot less problems there.
