A 19-year-old man has died after a shooting at Orland Square Mall in Orland Park, officials and witnesses say. The mall was put on lockdown and the suspect remains at large.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The incident happened at about 6:30 p.m. CT on Monday when officers were called to reports of an active shooter at the mall, which is located at 288 Orland Square Drive, about 19 miles southwest of Chicago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Witnesses reported hearing multiple gunshots and shoppers were seen running from the mall, while others found a place to take shelter. Video shared online showed a victim on the floor outside one of the stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“[A] witness tells me she saw paramedics performing CPR on one person,” reporter Ben Bradley said. Police confirmed that a 19-year-old man was shot near the food court and rushed to hospital, where he later died.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A large number of emergency services responded to the call of an active shooter, which prompted a lockdown while responding police officers worked to secure the area. No arrests were immediately made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was not immediately known what led to the shooting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
