Shots fired in NJ Mall...
(CNN) -- Police are responding to reports of a shooter at Westfield Garden State Plaza Mall in Paramus, New Jersey.
At least one gunman is said to have fired shots at security cameras, the state police said late Monday.
There were no immediate reports of injuries.
Eddie Kahmann, who works inside the mall, told CNN he heard 6 or 7 gunshots around 9:20 p.m. ET.
"There was just people running like crazy, so I quickly just closed my doors, ran to the back, turned off all the lights, music and everything, just to stay hidden," he said.
Kahmann spoke from inside the mall, one of the largest shopping centers in the New York City area.
Ally Kozic, another mall employee, said she saw "someone dressed in all black, carrying a large gun walk past our store."
She said she heard loud bangs about 10 minutes before her store was set to close for the night.
There is a large police presence at the mall. There are about 20 vehicles both marked and unmarked.
Police are putting on flak jackets and bringing out assault weapons. People have been pushed away from the mall and are telling CNN that they've been told the shopping center is on lockdown.
Extremely scary. Praying that there are no victims.

Thousands of people are still the mall the mayor just said. They are interviewing this guy that said the shooter told a couple of movers outside that he wasn't there to hurt them, and then walked into JCPenney with the gun slung over his shoulder.

I could not agree more. Obviously the way things are now is not working. SOMETHING needs to be done and the answer is NOT putting more guns into the hands of "the good guys" because they always seem to get into the hands of the bad guys. When is enough enough?

Re: Shots fired in NJ Mall...
They seem to think he was there to target someone specifically. And since he got away, I'm afraid of what may happen overnight if he tracks down his intended target. I'm thinking murder/suicide is in the future.

So scary, I work across the way from there and shop at that mall all the time. I was actually going to go there today with my DS to pick him up sneakers but didnt because he had two projects due. I will be in that area tomorrow morning.
Prayers for everyone involved.
ETA: Thank Goodness no one was hurt!

Re: Shots fired in NJ Mall...
According to the recent news conference, this guy was a major drug addict.
Drugs and guns..........as always, wonderful mix. 
Thankfully this did not have a worse outcome but I'm with the other person who said something seriously needs to be done in our country.
Just the other day there was that shooting at LAX.
I also feel more money needs to be poured into prevention/human services/mental health, instead of other areas it's being pissed away right now.

And it seems to be these 19-21 year old boys. Such a specific demographic.

I'm glad I was only half right.

Yes!!! This generation has zero coping skills. They don't know how to handle their feelings/emotions/interactions with other human beings.
It's a disgrace.

A friend of mine lives right there and said his wife was supposed to go there to look for a dress and he happened to get sick and they have 3 under 3 so she stayed home.

This is also the time frame that mental illness often sets in in males.
