The DeKalb County Police Department confirmed they are responding to a shooting that occurred Saturday night at the Mall at Stonecrest.
Police have locked down the entire shopping mall while authorities sweep and secure the scene. Authorities stated that no victims have been reported at this time.
Witness Douglas Freeman said he had just entered the mall when he heard at least two gunshots, causing many people to duck and run for cover.
“This stuff still happens around here. I wouldn't say I'm used to it, but you can't panic too much. You have to keep a level head in situations like this,” Freeman said.
Police continue to sweep the area to identify the suspect and determine the cause.
The incident is under investigation.
