On July 8, 2023, a shooting occurred at Glenbrook Mall in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The incident was reported to 911 just before 3:30 PM, with callers reporting hearing three to four shots and suggesting that one person may have been injured. When the police arrived, they found one victim with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound, who was transported to the hospital and is now in stable condition. The suspect was seen running out of the Barnes & Noble entrance before the officers arrived.
Glenbrook Mall was evacuated and closed following the shooting, but it reopened the following day. Fort Wayne Police Department detectives spoke with two persons of interest connected to the shooting, but as of July 12, the suspect has not yet been arrested. According to the Fort Wayne Police Department, the shooting was not a random incident where a shooter came into the mall randomly firing; rather, police believe some sort of altercation between the two parties led to the shots being fired.
The incident caused concern among people in the community and led to discussions about safety measures in public places. The investigation is still ongoing, and updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
The shooting at Glenbrook Mall was a tragic event that shook the local community. However, the mall has since reopened, and authorities are working diligently to identify and apprehend the suspect. Fort Wayne residents are hopeful that measures will be put in place to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future.
