We to Monroville Mall about an hour ago. There were three ambulances and a few cops cars outside one of the Macy's entrances....I parked at an adjacent Macy's entrance. As I put the car in park and grabbed my purse, I noticed large numbers of people streaming from all the exits in my view, and the cars around mine suddenly came to live & drove off. I got my 7 year old out and was heading inside when a nice, older blonde lady with broken English said "don't go in....they shoot". As soon as we returned to the car, massive amounts of cop cars from all over the area came streaming in as well as several other ambulances. This is the second "incident" at this mall in the past few months, the last one actually making national news.
Rotheslisberger again?
AH!
The mall where they filmed the first, “Dawn of the Dead.”
Was Brian Williams there, dodging the bullets?

Obama’s sons playing with guns again?

Lemme guess
African-Americans?
Ooops. Sorry. Wrong moniker.
Youths?
Teenagers?
Monroevill, Penn Hills...used to be a nice, safe area. A good friend lives there. She won’t leave her home anymore. Will probably move.
This is Pennsylvania so it’s obviously Amish...LOL.
Yep. The confusion was just unfolding and wasn’t full-fledged when I was heading inside. I saw ambulances and cops at another entrance. This mall had a mob riot in December and I intiallly thought there was some small scuffle or something that was being made a big deal. It was after this woman warned us and we turned around that the stream of people and cars really began. And the ambulances and cops started pouring in as we were pulling out.
So poor judgement on my part? yeah, I guess. But it happened very fast and I think I was there so early on that no one really had a grasp of what was happening.
Yep. Used to be a very nice area until social engineering hit.
“This is Pennsylvania so its obviously Amish.”
No. It would be Mennonites.
Were you carrying concealed?
Let’s just say as I looked around, the predominant physical description went something like this:
Dark Skin
Male
Teenage
Hoodie
“Were you carrying concealed?”
Always
