Brandon mall shooting investigation

Another developing story involves a shooting at the Brandon Mall. It sent shoppers and employees running for cover last night. More than 100 deputies were sent to the scene. Now, nobody got hurt this time. Our Kelly Cowan is live with more details on all of this. Hey, Kel. Good morning to you. And if you're like me, you probably learned about this from a neighborhood post, people alerting each other about this shooting. And the first thing that I saw was an active shooter alert. Now, Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office was very quick to quell those rumors about this being an active shooter. Instead, they say that this all stemmed from some sort of argument between two groups of people and someone pulling out a gun and firing that gun. We don't know how many shots were fired at this point, all of that under investigation. Investigation. But we do know that according to the sheriff's office, no one was actually shot. One employee injured by some broken glass outside of a Verizon store that apparently was on the business end of a bullet. But the sound of gunfire, it sent shoppers and mall employees scrambling for safety. Some employees described that they had to barricade themselves behind locked doors with their customers. We were scared but we were kind of at the back so we knew there was a place to escape and the staff were assuring us that everything was okay. They had locked the doors and stuff and that they're trained on how to get us out if there is a way that the shooter could get inside. Everyone just started running straight through the restaurant. People trying to come into the back. People trying to get through the back door just so they could get safe. It was a lot very very quickly. Now, the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office says that their deputies were on the scene within two minutes of that first 911 call, but the suspects fled immediately. And so the Sheriff's Office has not provided a description of those suspects, but they say that this was an isolated incident. And right now they're trying to track down the people they believe were involved and have further questions for them, of course. All right, Kelly. Thank you.
