Boise Mall Shooting: At Least 2 Killed and 4 Injured – The New York Times

Two people were killed and four others were injured, including a police officer, during a shooting at a mall in Boise, Idaho, on Monday.

Police Chief Ryan Lee said that Boise officers responded to reports of shots being fired at the Boise Town Square mall at around 1:50 p.m. and that at least one person was shot and down.

When the police arrived, Chief Lee said at a news conference on Monday, officers found an individual matching a suspect s description and exchanged gunfire just afterward, which resulted in a police officer s injury.

Chief Lee said the suspect was taken into custody. The police believe there was only one assailant and that there was no ongoing threat or danger to the community at large from this incident, Chief Lee said.
