PARAMUS N.J. (CBSNewYork) — Police responded in force Monday evening, as an active shooter was reported on the rampage at the Westfield Garden State Plaza Mall.

Police sources told WCBS 880′s Steve Scott there was still an active shooter at the mall as of 10:15 p.m. No details about injuries were immediately available.

Law enforcement sources initially said people had been hit, but it was not immediately confirmed whether anyone was.

A SWAT team was seen storming the mall as of just before 10:30 p.m.

Shots were fired inside the mall beginning sometime before the mall in Paramus, N.J. closed for the night at 9:30 p.m.

The man firing the shots was reportedly walking around in full body gear and a helmet, with an assault rifle.

An estimated 200 police units were on the scene, and a mass-casualty unit was required.

A witness tweeted that a shooting happened “over by Nordstrom on the second floor.”

Unpossible. I’m certain that assault rifles are illegal in NJ and the mall stands a 99.9% chance of being a “gun free zone.”

Stay tuned for more staged shootings EVERY DAY this week.

I assume we’ll see them.

I assume the shooters will be carrying Rush Limbaugh’s new book.

Sounds to me like the loonies out there are seeking attention ... mall shootings are the latest rage along with school shootings. Is sure to give them press as we have seen.

Both BTW are generally gun free zones...and the loonies know it.
