Witness describes chaos after Oxford Valley Mall shooting: 'He was bleeding all over'

A man told Fox 29: “I was downcast. I had my headphones on and was looking out of the corner of my eye. I saw someone reach out and I heard a snap. Something ricocheted and hit me right there, right there. I looked over and the guy was running, holding his arm. He was bleeding all over,” the witness said.

This person also commented on his reaction afterward: “I asked him, 'Did you just get shot?' And he said, 'Yeah, what are you going to do?'” "Can you help me?" He kept running. I ran to JC Penney's and started yelling, 'Lock everything down! He just got shot! Nobody go outside and call 911!' And they called 911," the man told Fox 29.
