Whoa: Dude Pulls Out Gun On His Opps After Nearly Getting Jumped In A Mall!
ORLANDO, Fla. – Videos circulating on social media of a fight Sunday at Mall at Millenia which shows an individual pointing a handgun will result in more charges, however, Orlando police have not said who has been charged or what charges they will face.
According to the report, a Macy’s security officer told police he saw about 15 people running up the escalator and he pursued the group thinking they may be shoplifters.
The security guard said they saw an unknown male being “assaulted by the group." The assailants were using mannequins and store property to hit the victim, causing about $6,800 in property damages, according to the report.
Police spoke to the 21-year-old victim who said he didn’t know his attackers and he was in Orlando visiting with friends. The victim declined to press charges.
Detectives reviewed surveillance footage from Macy’s showing the group beating the victim to the ground and hitting him with nearby mannequins until they broke into pieces.
Officers who responded also spoke with another person, who was with the beating victim. His name is redacted in the report. That individual had a Glock 44 handgun and was taken into custody.
Police said the person with the gun said while he was at the mall, a group of people started staring at him. According to this person, the group started to shout insults at him and threaten him and his friend.
The individual said one of the group members took off his shirt and he took that as a sign he wanted to fight, according to the report. At this point, the individual went to his friend and grabbed the handgun out of his friend’s backpack.
The person told police he wasn’t going to shoot anyone but wanted to “scare them" saying it was 10 versus two people. Posted by JR</>
