1 dead, 1 arrested after shooting at The Shops at RedBird, Dallas police say


The Shops at RedBird were closed to the public Tuesday afternoon as Dallas police investigated a shooting that left one person dead, officials said.

Police were called at about 4 p.m. to the 3600 block of West Camp Wisdom Road, where officers found a person had shot someone, Corbin Rubinson, a police spokesperson, said in a statement.

Rubinson said the person, who police did not publicly identify, was pronounced dead at the scene by Dallas Fire-Rescue.

Police arrested another person in connection with the shooting. Rubinson did not immediately say what charges they may face.

Officer Michael Dennis, a police spokesperson, declined to provide identifications for the people involved in the shooting, referring a reporter back to the police’s initial statement.

The ​Dallas College Workforce Center at RedBird, which is located in the mall, was placed on lockdown after the shooting, C.C. Gonzalez-Kurz, a college spokesperson, said in a message.

The shooting, according to Dallas College police, took place on the first floor away from the college’s facilities, Gonzalez-Kurz said.

All students and staff were accounted for, and classes were cancelled for the remainder of the day, she added.

Peter Brodsky, CEO of The Shops at RedBird, said in a statement that the shooting was isolated and “not a random act of violence.”

“It could have happened anywhere,” Brodsky’s statement read, in part. “The safety of our shoppers, employees and tenants is always our highest priority.”

Brodsky said mall staff — who have 24/7 patrols, surveillance systems and a partnership with police — would review all aspects of the incident and take any additional steps needed to maintain a safe and welcoming environment.

Lorie Blair, the Dallas City Council member for District 8, which includes southeast Dallas and The Shops at RedBird, issued a statement expressing condolences to the family of the person killed and encouraging “anyone with information to cooperate fully with law enforcement and trust in the professionalism of our police and public safety teams.”

At least a half-dozen police vehicles were parked outside the mall’s northern entrance after 5 p.m. as officers worked to interview witnesses. Officers did not allow the public to enter the mall from that entrance.

A group of people gathered outside the entrance, some pacing the parking lot while others were embracing each other. One man repeatedly spoke aloud, “Come on, dog.” Others were crying.

Staff writers Bianca Rodriguez-Mora and Suryatapa Chakraborty contributed to this report.
