A shot rang out in Hanover, Maryland’s Arundel Mills Mall on Saturday afternoon as an armed citizen fought off three alleged attackers outside Burlington Coat Factory.
WBAL-TV reported that police were called for the gunshot around 5 p.m. and discovered that three people had “approached and assaulted” a customer outside the clothing store. During the assault the intended victim pulled a gun and it discharged, striking one of the three alleged attackers in the wrist.
FOX 5 noted that the alleged attackers ran to a car and fled the scene, but police were able to locate the vehicle on I-97. “The car drove off again, and police chased them” until the vehicle crashed and the alleged attackers were arrested.
Three persons were arrested in all, one of whom “had an apparent gunshot wound on his wrist.” The two other suspects arrested were both injured in the crash.
