One person killed, another injured in shooting at Florida shopping mall

Police arrived at the mall around 3.40pm local time after a call of multiple shots being fired at the mall.

A man died in a shooting at a shopping mall in central Florida two days before Christmas in which the victim was apparently “targeted” for the attack, police said.

Ocala Police Chief Mike Balken told reporters on Saturday evening that the man was killed after he was shot multiple times in a common area at Paddock Mall in Ocala, located about 80 miles north-west of Orlando.
