A fight over face coverings caused panic and false rumors of shots being fired which led to a large police response at a Thousand Oaks mall Saturday evening, authorities said.
The incident started when two men confronted a third man over his refusal to wear a mask inside The Oaks Mall...
911 started receiving several calls reporting shots being fired and also of someone brandishing a firearm.
Other callers said that the off-duty L.A. deputy had pulled out his concealed handgun to stop a fight, and some people reported seeing four to five people engaging in a fight, authorities said.
“The situation caused confusion and panic among some shoppers,” officials said, adding that the incident prompted faulty rumors of shots fired which led to a large response of 16 patrol units.
No shots were fired, the sheriff’s office said, and there were only some minor injuries from the fight.
None of the men involved wanted to pursue any criminal charges, authorities said.

What in the world are you asking about?
Beats me. Somehow you jumped from an article about the Wuhan Flu to a crude criticism of California. So, I dunno.
I was “talking” about the mall where the confrontation took place, which is in California.
Same thing happened to me at a grocery store shopping before Thanksgiving. I was not wearing a mask. It got real ugly. 911 called.
This is why even though I am asthmatic and COPD I suffer through wearing a mask if I have to go to a store, though I haven’t been to a mall outside of a anchor store for ten years. It’s just not safe with these psychotic mask Nazis that believe they have the right “because science’ to harangue and in too many cases attack those that aren’t wearing the holy face diaper, forget that the science says it is next to useless on healthy people.
I went to Youtube fully expecting to find that the 2 people who 'complained' to the patriot not wearing a mask, were professional instigators and likely did so to film the response ("2 people" is the tipoff, one to instigate and one to film it).
No video. Except for one gibmedat who was there and later recounting her tale of woe for history's sake, I'm sure.
Her money quote was when she said, her sister thought people were running because there was 'like, a new store opening or sumthin'. Her sister said this to her after a man had dragged his wife past them and said 'you need to get out now'.
You literally cannot have a Republic with mouthbreathers like the gibmedat sisters. We know this for certain now. GropinJoe is proof-of-concept. He would have comforted the gibmedat sisters by stroking their hair and confronting Cornpop.
Your post says "makes no sense" but I am telling you nothing makes sense.
This is hatred of the unbeliever. Nothing more, nothing less.
Liberals say they are love, kind, smart. This lets them smear conservatives as stupid, crazy, evil, mean.
Now add in the “wearing a mask is caring, self-sacrifice, good”. That makes someone refusing to wear the mask an evil meanie who wants to kill others.
This emotion-based morality is teaching liberals to hate and want to hurt the infidel, conservatives.
Ventura county used to be free until last May when they started the lockdown plandemic.
