Northpark Shooting (Updated)

A shooting took place at Northpark Mall this afternoon.  

 A man was injured but the suspect was taken into custody. The extend of the injuries are not yet known.  More information will be posted as it becomes available. 

Update (7:50 PM): Ridgeland Police Chief Bryan Myers said a woman pulled a gun on a business owner at the mall.  The business owner exercised his constitutional right to self defense and returned fire, wounding the woman in the leg.  

The woman is in custody at the hospital. The investigation is not complete.  The shooting will be presented to the grand jury as standard procedure. 

Northpark Mall's protocol was followed and customers sheltered in businesses until the scene was secure. 

Update (10:40 PM): The perp is a 16 year-old female.  She pulled the gun on the owner of Cornival Popcorn.  The store is on the upper level of the mall near the women's section of Dillards.

This is why the Jackson Mall and Metro Center were abandoned to the thugs. But you are a racist if you don't endanger the life of your family to contribute to the tax base!

Proof that constitutional carry works when everyone participates.

@7:24 pm... This is still a nice Mall, recently renovated.

Last time I checked, long ago, Northpark was a gun free zone. I haven't been back.

Shelter in place? I'm getting the fuck out of there if I can.

The business owner who delivered the shot apparently needs to go back to the pistol range. Meanwhile, you, me, and other taxpayers are paying for this perpetrators bad decisions.

Get a grip. You are no Paul Harrell or Lenny Magill.
He was already looking down the barrel of her drawn weapon.
Your paper target at the range doesn’t shoot back.
He survived. He didn’t hit an innocent bystander. And the threat was neutralized.

Madison County is spiraling down the drain

@8:55 PM - What? If it's a GFZ how is it that a 16-year old has a gun? You mean the GFZ signs don't mean diddly squat? But the libtards think they do.

I'm old enough to remember going to Jackson Mall with my mom when I was a very young child. I still remember the Orange Julius store..

Gun Free Zone signs don't mean jack.

Gun Free Zone signs mean about as much as a crooked business owner posting the Ten Commandments outside their front door.

The usefulness of a GFZ sign or designation is that it lets you know where not to go or spend your money. Generally once I see one I never go back. I haven't been to Northpark since they first put a sign up right after the original CCW permit law was enacted, around 1990.

Surely you jest.
North park has not been a safe place in quite a long time. Any renovations that have been done to that place does not make it a safe place to frequent.

I don’t recall any shootings at Metrocenter.

@3:17 AM / 5:56 AM It was sarcasm. I ignore those signs, even at the tax office and public works, as those are contrary to the law (public property). Concealed is concealed.

WLBT reports that the woman who was shot was trying to steal from a popcorn store. How. How pathetic is that? What kind of low-life steals popcorn, of all things? How much could the popcorn be worth to get shot over it?

KF has opened the flood gates to trolls with their juvenile Madison and Ridgeland comments.

The Second Amendment does not include "except at malls" nor libtard owned stores.

Krusatyr said...

"Danger", guns, drugs, acting out nasty mayhem are magnets for some parts of society to enjoy the thrill of witnessing and video-ing with their phones to share on social media.

"I was there, I heard the shots, I saw the bodies, I saw the cops..." is what attracts them, hence some commercial venues in shopping malls or on Capitol Street "sell" danger, they sell risk of death.

What is it about a mall that will turn an area into a crime-ridden, thug infested, dystopian wasteland shit hole!?

Ridgeland is a dangerous place.

I'm sure the woman agrees it was her Constitutional right to bring a gun into a mall.

Do the parents of this 16 year old robbing people at gunpoint go to jail?

Well I do. I used to pick up a lot of fired bullets in the parking lot.

I live in Madison and totally agree with you. The daily influx of shoppers and "sightseers" from Hinds county is having a definite negative effect on the area. Some of us are thinking about moving on because of it because we know it's just going to get worse.

She must not have known it was a gun free zone. Bigger sign will fix that.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.
