Shots fired during attempted shoplifting at Arrowhead Mall AZ
 

GLENDALE, AZ - Police are investigating after shots were fired during a shoplifting attempt at Arrowhead Mall in Glendale this afternoon.

Sgt. Jay O'Neill said officers responded around 12:15 p.m. to the shopping center near Loop 101 and Bell Road.

Sears security officers reportedly tried to apprehend a man and woman for shoplifting when the woman opened fire inside the store. O'Neill said no one was struck by gunfire in the confrontation.

The couple fled the area on a black motorcycle, according to O'Neill.

The suspects are described as a white male with a "scruffy" beard, and a white female seen wearing a blue hoodie, jeans and a backpack.

O'Neill said officers are searching the surrounding area for the suspects, and are currently checking a similar-looking motorcycle at a nearby apartment complex.

There is currently no closure of the mall, but O'Neill said it is an active scene as police continue to investigate.

Air15 video showed a large police presence and crime tape blocking off the area directly in front of the Sears entrance.

I used to live not far from there at all - 67th and Bell Road really.

Whatever. Going to the mall is now a crap shoot. Go shopping and you might eat lead instead.

More guns is the solution.
