One person was killed and five others were injured in a shooting at a Louisiana shopping mall Thursday that occurred when two groups began shooting at each other, police said.
The shooting unfolded at around 1:22 p.m. local time near the food court at the Mall of Louisiana in Baton Rouge, city police said.


Five suspects were taken into custody, Baton Rouge Police Chief Thomas Morse Jr. said.

Surveillance video showed it was a “targeted” attack as “two groups of people got into an argument inside the food court and started shooting at each other,” Morse said.

“Unfortunately, there were some innocent people that were in the area that might have also [been hurt],” Morse added.
