Raleigh police were working to secure Crabtree Valley Mall Saturday afternoon after gunshots were fired inside. 21

As of 3:20 p.m., police said no one was being allowed in or out of the mall. No suspects have been arrested, and police said they did not have reports of any injuries.

Raleigh police were called to the mall at about 2:45 p.m. Glenwood Avenue was shut down near the mall as a result of the shooting. Drivers should avoid the area.

Photos from inside the mall showed responding authorities with their weapons drawn. Tony Rice, a NASA Solar System Ambassador and contributor to WRAL.com, said he sheltered in place when people began screaming and running from the mall. Rice said he passed by law enforcement officials as he left the mall.

I didn't even notice. Hope you aren't anywhere near there.

I was living in Raleigh in 1972 when a sniper killed 3 people at North Hills mall. It feels so weird when this stuff happens close by.
