A shooting is suspected inside a shopping center outside Milwaukee.
Several people are injured, according to preliminary information.
Several people were injured in a shooting at the Mayfair Maill Mall in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, according to the local mayor. The alarm went off shortly after 10 p.m. Swedish time. The alleged perpetrator must still be at large.
The witnesses WISN-TV spoke to had heard eight to twelve shots. According to reporters from the television station, five people had been seen being transported on a stretcher from the mall, of whom at least two sat down and walked.
None of those who were shot should be in mortal danger, writes ABC News.
Approximately 75 police officers are at the scene of the crime in Wauwatosa, just over a mile from Milwaukee.
According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, police officers have asked store staff to appeal to customers seeking protection. The newspaper has contacted a representative of the mall who could not confirm that a shooting was taking place.
The Mayfair Mall was subjected to another shooting in February when a 17-year-old boy was shot and killed by a police officer, AP writes. Several demonstrations took place outside the mall in the following months.
