news wont cover it because, you know, nobody died.
NEWPORT BEACH Sadness for far away victims turned to up-close terror Saturday evening as shots rang out at Fashion Island, sending holiday shoppers
scrambling for their lives.
One person is in police custody after "at least 50 shots were fired" near the eastern Macy's store entrance at the crowded outdoor mall, said Kathy
Lowe, Newport Beach Police spokeswoman. No one was hit by the shots, Lowe said. One person suffered a minor injury running in the aftermath of the
shooting, but they were treated and released at the scene, Lowe said.
Late Saturday, Lowe identified the shooter as Marcos Sarinana Gurrola of Garden Grove. Gurrola doesn't appear to have a criminal record.
Lowe said the first 911 call was made at 4:35 p.m. She said a 42-year-old white male was in the parking lot firing shots into the air and into the
ground. The shooter put the gun down, and was intercepted and arrested without a struggle by two Newport Beach bike officers, Lowe said.
In the parking lot, police focused their attention on a white Honda Civic with an exposed black handgun sitting on its trunk. Six shell casings were
on the ground next to the car. A black jacket and Lakers cap were also sitting on the trunk of the car.
