A gun concealed in a man's pocket went off Saturday while he was inside a shoe store at a mall in Valencia.
The accidental shooting occurred about 6:30 p.m. at Journey's in the Valencia Town Center mall at 24201 Valencia Blvd., according to Lt. Richard O'Neal of the Santa Clarita Sheriff's Station.Surveillance video showed the weapon firing toward the floor, O'Neal said. It appeared the discharge was an accident and that the man was not wounded.
The man ran from the store, the lieutenant said, noting it is illegal to carry a concealed weapon without a permit. The store was temporarily evacuated while deputies investigated the discharge but returned to normal operation, O'Neal said. The investigation continued, the sheriff's station tweeted, and anyone with information was asked to contact 661-260-4000, or Crime Stoppers at 800-222-8477.Copyright © 2022 by City News Service, Inc.
