OCOEE -- Gunfire erupted late Saturday night at the West Oaks Mall as hundreds of teenagers rushed the mall's movie theater.
Ocoee police were called to the mall to help control a large, hostile crowd. Orange County deputies said 800-900 middle school and high school students tried to rush into the theater without paying. Ocoee police said 200-300 made it inside. Police said the juveniles and young adults were causing a disturbance in the food court and movie theater area of the mall.
Police said a large group rushed into the theater and continued causing a disturbance there. Orange County deputies and police from Winter Garden and Windermere were called in to help disperse the crowd.
"During this time, there was a shot fired and somebody was robbed," said Lt. Paul Hopkins, of the Orange County Sheriff's Office. "But the Ocoee Police Department jumped on that quickly and were able to catch the gunman with the gun and make an arrest out of that."
Ocoee police said one juvenile was arrested for battery and resisting an officer without violence, and a second was arrested on misdemeanor drug charges.
Added Hopkins: "Our main concern is this: These are middle to high school kids who have guns, who are shooting guns, who are robbing people, driving stolen cars and they have drugs in their car. ... You need to know where your kids are at all time."

Why were they all not arrested?
Malls have been set up to provide sanctuary in the case of an attack by zombies.
Theater is showing “Black or White” and “Selma”. Wonder what the target audience is.
As Wikipedia says:
“The mall has been in decline for several years due to economic downturn in the area, and the resulting increase in crime.[3] Police calls originating from the mall have increased steadily, for problems including assault, car thefts, and more.”

It would be racist to read between the lines.
“These are middle to high school kids who have guns, who are shooting guns, who are robbing people, driving stolen cars and they have drugs in their car.”
OUTRAGEOUS!! That should be against the law!
Rushed the theater as to not pay.Do these morons actually think the mgmnt was going to say “Oh Wow.Rioters,lets give them a free movie”?
What the F is wrong with these people
wtf
800 to 900?
Yes. Demographics.
Dry runs folks. Dry runs. Very soon all of those Obabmaphones will ring and the order will be given. Directions, for those who answer the phone, will be given to the nearest weapons and ammunition distribution units and from there... Have at it. The city is your oyster... Take it. By any means necessary. Or something like that.
lolololol
It’s white kids acting black because it’s cool. And it may be a way to survive.
Another article said 300. Yeah, 800 - 900 sounds better.
Hahahahahahaha!.
Yeah, "teens."
The 80’s called, they want their hair back.
Bush did it.
You bigoted racist! It was the Scandanavians-—blond haired, blue eyed devils!!!!
They’re just used to getting free stuff. And what isn’t given to them, they take. Works out well for them.
My thought as well. They storm the theater, fill the seats, and really truly expect the movie to start just like nothing happened.
Theater owner: "Oh well. They got inside without paying. I have no choice but to show the movie, now."
Does ONE of these 'teens' have ANY brain?
No, no, no, where the ____ were the PARENTS? Or parent; or parentoid; or whatever——
Yes, they do think it’s cool. A lot of them (here in Florida) live in the same areas, are the product of what used to be called white trash families, probably have gone to jail together, and are creating a whole new sub-class of thugs.
The other thing that is also pretty disturbing is that a lot of these people, both black and white, are becoming jailhouse Muslims.
