After a shooting terrified mall shoppers this police chief understands why people are on edge.
“We have everything that other cities have but on a smaller scale, so when something like this happens people are put on edge and rightfully so,” Chief Benny told News 4.While no arrests have been made the investigation is ongoing.
Another violent incident occurred at the mall on July 16, though police could not confirm that shots were fired, but like Saturday, stores closed due to safety concerns. “You’ve got people that have no regard for the safety of themselves or others when acting in an absolutely ridiculous manner,” Benny said.
Officers will step up patrols around Wiregass Commons in the shooting’s aftermath and will always respond when concerns are reported. However, Benny said day-to-day security is the responsibility of the mall because it is a private business.
