LIVE UPDATES: 2 teen boys, 3 guns recovered after Ross Park Mall shooting – WPXI
Lt. Brian Kohlhepp with Ross Township Police said there was a fight inside the mall that involved five, possibly six people. Guns were pulled out during the fight and police said some witnesses reported hearing 1-3 gunshots. The fight took place on the second floor of the mall near Guest Services and police said they are looking to see if this was gang-related.
Two juvenile males are in custody in connection with the shooting. Police said they believe both of them are 17 years old. They have not been charged yet, police said. The teens are from the Pittsburgh area, now Ross Township.
Three guns were recovered from inside the mall.
There were no injuries in connection with the shooting or evacuation of the mall.
Police slammed the mall’s parent company, Simon Properties, saying they were at a disadvantage because there are no cameras inside common areas of the mall. Anchor stores and some interior stores have their own cameras. Officials said they are going to have to rely heavily on social media and cell phone videos. If you have any video or pictures, you’re urged to contact Ross Township Police.
Investigators said the evacuation went as smooth as it could and units train for situations like this.

Military couple shot and killed outside their Virginia home
Police are searching for a Nissan and its driver after a military couple were shot and killed outside their home in Virginia, authorities said Wednesday.
Edward McDaniel, 55, and Brenda McDaniel, 63, were fatally shot in the 8000 block of Flint Street in Springfield, an area just southwest of Washington, D.C., according to Fairfax County Police. Both were military veterans. The husband was an active-duty colonel in the U.S. Army, NBC Washington reported.
“They were tragically and horribly murdered in their neighborhood,” Fairfax County Police Chief Kevin David said during a news conference on Wednesday.
The motive was unclear, but authorities said they believe the tragedy was related to a burglary at their home on Monday. A preliminary investigation suggests the person who broke into the residence earlier this week is the suspect in the shooting, according to police. Officials have not specified what evidence led them to draw that conclusion.
However, Davis said police also believe the shooter was known to a relative of the military couple.
Officers responded to a 911 call about 9:20 a.m. ET at the residence, according to police. Authorities found the bodies of the two victims in their front yard, both with multiple gunshot wounds.
At least two people were inside the home at the time of the shooting, police said.

State police said they believe the shooting about 2 a.m. was an isolated incident.

Child killed in apparent road rage incident on 55 Freeway in Orange
A 6-year-old boy was shot and killed during an apparent road rage incident on the 55 Freeway in Orange on Friday morning, and the gunman remains at large, California Highway Patrol officials said.
The child was sitting in a booster seat in the right rear passenger side of his mother’s car when he was struck by the gunfire on the northbound 55 near Chapman Avenue around 8 a.m., according to CHP Officer Florentino Olivera.
…
He was transported by the Orange Fire Department to Children’s Hospital Orange County, where he died. Authorities have not identified the victim.
“It’s unfortunate we lost a boy this morning. Our thoughts and prayers are with the mom and the family,” Olivera said.
Investigators spoke with the boy’s mother, who was not injured, as they tried to piece together the events that led up to the deadly gunfire. They are also trying to determine how many shots were fired.
The shooter is believed to have been in a newer model white sedan — possibly a Volkswagen station wagon — but authorities do not have a detailed description of the car or suspect.
Olivera described the road rage incident as “isolated” and said it was unrelated to a string of more than 60 BB or pellet gun shootings that have been reported in Orange, Riverside and Los Angeles counties in the past three weeks, mostly along the 91 Freeway.
Anyone with information about the incident is urged to call Investigator Kevin Futrell of CHP’s Santa Ana office at 714-567-6000.
