At approximately 12:55 p.m., shots were heard inside the mall coming from the second floor. A City of Coral Gables police officer was on the property and immediately responded to the fitness center and discovered three people suffering from apparent gunshot wounds. The City of Miami Police Department, which is a neighboring city, immediately provided additional assistance to secure the area. Mall personnel provided patrons with instructions to seek shelter for their safety. Coral Gables Fire Rescue responded to the scene and pronounced one the three individuals deceased on the scene.
