At least two people are dead and five others — including a police officer — are injured after a shopping mall shooting Monday in Boise, Idaho, authorities said.
At a news conference, Boise Police Chief Ryan Lee said officers responded to a report of shots fired at Boise Towne Square shopping mall at about 1:50 p.m. The mall is located in Idaho’s largest city and is the city’s largest mall.
When police arrived, authorities say they saw someone who matched the description of a suspect. An exchange of gunfire followed, which led to one police officer being injured, according to Lee.
The suspect is in critical condition, and the officer was treated and released according to Boise police. Authorities haven't identified a motive for the shooting.
