Metro Nashville police are responding to a report of shots fired Thursday afternoon at Opry Mills Mall.

According to Metro dispatch, the call came in just before 2:30 p.m.

Information on reported injuries wasn't immediately available.

Shoppers and employees at the mall were quick to take to Twitter with descriptions of the incident:

Could be terribly ironically named....

Hope the worst is over and that the best outcome happens.

Is it just four victims or is that still fluid? Not that four is an acceptable number. 1 is too many.

Mostly speculation so far I think

I mean, usually it seems the initial numbers set the tone, but there are some outliers (I think Pulse and Manchester had low initial reports that obviously went way up).

Saw on a tweet that they're blocking people from entering the mall area; I'm assuming the mall parking lot.
quote:

UPDATE: Police have one person in custody in connection to the active shooter situation at Opry Mills mall in #Nashville Avoid the #OpryMills area if you can. Much of the scene is blocked off.


Saw this as well:
quote:

#oprymills here's what I can personally verify. It was a shooting, at least 1 person shot (news is reporting 4, but I don't personally know if that's a fact), happened in the mall main walking area (not in a store) near the employee entrance closest to Forever21 + Johnny Rockets


Take it with a grain of salt

Fire Dpt says one critical and transported

Hopefully it was a personal dispute.

Talk about amazing coincidences.
