WHDH TV reported a shooting took place on the mall property, and that police were looking for a suspect. Boston 25 News reported yellow tape has sealed off the mall's parking lot between TGI Friday's and across from Dave & Busters.

Journalist Jeffrey Hastings reported via Patch the incident may have stemmed from a road rage incident between a tractor trailer and SUV while in traffic on South Willow Street. A comment to the Rockingham Alert Facebook page said the driver of the tractor trailer was shot and left in front of the truck while the gunman drove off.
