Shots were fired in the Cielo Vista mall, police said.
One person is dead and three others injured after a shooting at the Cielo Vista mall in El Paso, Texas, Wednesday, authorities said. Two suspects are now in custody, according to police.
The mall is located near a Walmart where 23 people were killed in a racist shooting in August 2019.
It's too early to speculate on a motive, or whether the shooting was targeted or random, El Paso police said.
One suspect is in custody and police were looking into whether or not there's an outstanding suspect, authorities said.
Right now, police said, the focus is making sure the injured are taken care of and securing the mall, and an investigation will be conducted.
It was a "chaotic scene" in the mall after shots were fired and "people did flee," the El Paso Police Department said during a briefing Wednesday night.
"It does cause panic," police said.
The suspect was taken into custody inside the mall, according to police.
The University Medical Center of El Paso said it received two male victims of Wednesday night's shooting, and that they are both in critical condition.

The El Paso Police Department said authorities are gathering witnesses and that it will take time to entirely clear the mall.
Authorities said they believe the scene is secure at this time.
