Shots Fired in Pa. Mall Parking Lot
Published: 12/7/07, 1:46 PM EDT

ALLENTOWN, Pa. (AP) - Shots were fired in the parking lot of a shopping mall Friday during an apparent holdup of an armored car, officials said.

People ran into the mall for safety after the gunfire began. Bank of America spokesman Ernesto Anguilla said the shooting was apparently related to an attempted holdup of an armored car.

"None of our associates or customers were injured," Anguilla said.

Television footage showed three bullet casings in the parking lot of the South Mall, where police converged shortly after 10:30 a.m.

Patty Dudley, a shopper from Macungie, said she was at Stein Mart in the mall when employees ushered her and other customers to the back of the store. They told her something had happened outside and customers could not leave.

2. We REALLY need to get serious about gun control.

Guns are only good for killing things and killing things is not good.

Ban 'em all.

It's that simple.
