Shots Fired in Pa. Mall Parking Lot
Source: ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALLENTOWN, Pa. (AP) -- Shots were fired in the parking lot of a shopping mall Friday during an apparent holdup of an armored car, officials said.

People ran into the mall for safety after the gunfire began. Bank of America spokesman Ernesto Anguilla said the shooting was apparently related to an attempted holdup of an armored car.

"None of our associates or customers were injured," Anguilla said.

Television footage showed three bullet casings in the parking lot of the South Mall, where police converged shortly after 10:30 a.m.

I thought that maybe someone was jealous that another shopper had gotten the last sale item!

4. We must ban armored cars, they are the cause behind poor, misguided people starting a life of crime.
