An incident happened yesterday in Aventura Mall in Florida. Multiple witnesses are claiming there was a shooter. There’s videos witnesses took that show people running in fear, screaming, cops running with guns and in a couple of the videos it looks like a gunman is visible. In another video, it shows police escorting a man. One of the officers has the man by his arm and it looks like he has handcuffs on. But yet, police and the media are claiming there was no gunman at all. In a press release about the incident, it states:
On Saturday December 23rd at approximately 7:00PM the Aventura Police Department was notified of reports of
possible shots fired within the Aventura Mall.
Police Officers from the City of Aventura and multiple surrounding agencies were immediately dispatched to the
scene. This incident resulted in the evacuation of the mall and caused heavy traffic delays for several hours as
holiday shoppers exited the area.
There were no victims of any shooting located and all investigable leads have resulted in no indication of any
shooting or gunfire within the mall. The Aventura Police Department is continuing this investigation.
Any member of the public with any leads or information related to the reports of shots fired is asked to please call
the Aventura Police Department Communications Center at 305-466-8999.
Aventura Mall has reopened and resumed their regular holiday shopping schedule.
Once again it looks like we’re being lied to and a cover up is underway.

This Mall was OVER CAPACITY yesterday (12/23). Parking in mall grounds being practically impossible. Do not insult your Shoppers & Retailers present by calling this incident a "HOAX" & Incorrect Reports. People being terrorized is no False alarm. #AventuraMall

Just experienced the scariest episode in my life at #aventuramall people running and screaming bc of a shooting. We hid inside the gucci store in Bloomingdales #shooting

I’m absolutely appalled that police are saying there was no shooting at the Aventura mall. Then why would the ENTIRE mall evacuate and everyone said they heard gunshots. My dad was there and feared for his life. If this is a cover up I’m really not okay with it. #aventuramall

#AventuraMall if anyone believes there wasn’t a shooting then you’re part of the problem in #america.

I was just at #Aventuramall I was so scared… for a moment I thought it would all end here. I’m thankful to God that he protected my mom and I from harm. But, i’m praying for the people who stayed inside and who aren’t able to get out like we did. I pray for them to be safe.

The shooting at #AventuraMall was fucking real. The fact that they’re trying to cover up what happened is disgusting.

Disgusted in the media and #AventuraMall for covering up yesterdays incident like nothing happened !!!
— PH (@Stephanieotero7) December 24, 2017
#AventuraMall shooting being covered by local/MSM on 12/24/17 "Trust Santa and keep shopping in our stores,but those gunshots are not real". (Shaking head) Side note: ISIS said wks ago they would attack us through Christmas Day,and large part of terrorism is FEAR.#BREAKING

Thank God🙏🏾 for making me make it out safe #AventuraMall

What happened at #AventuraMall is the same that happened at #Dolphinmall somehow I feel like malls are covering shit like this up. Even tho we all heard shots when the Dolphin mall event happened nothing was found. Really creepy shit.
