A shooting at the Roosevelt Field Mall on Long Island sent holiday shoppers running in a panic this afternoon.
Nassau County police say that it was a "possible robbery with shots fired," and the police commissioner said, "We have one individual shot. We have one subject in custody." Witnesses told PIX11 that dozens of shoppers were seen running out of the mall.
