COLUMBIA — No one was injured Saturday night as police said a fistfight turned into a shooting at a Columbia mall Saturday as several presidential campaigns partied about a dozen miles away.
The two men who fired the shots and a third man who was fighting with them were not immediately arrested as dozens of police officers searched woods as others went from store to store at the Columbiana Mall letting scared shoppers know it was safe to leave, Columbia Police Chief Skip Holbrook said.
The incident began as a fight between two people about 7 p.m. in front of the Kay's Jewelers near the food court, Holbrook said.
A third man joined in and "at least two people pulled guns and fired in the air," Holbrook said.
