SIOUX FALLS, SD (KELO.com) — Gang violence may have been involved in the weekend active shooter incident at the Empire Mall. Sioux Falls Police say there may have been a second shooter. 18-year old Jaden Michael Justis Bingham is jailed on a 100-thousand dollar bond. Police Lieutenant Aaron Nyberg says it’s too soon to tell whether a second person may also have fired a weapon.
Police say two groups met in the mall by chance, and a dispute quickly escalated to gunfire. They say it’s possible gang violence was part of what led up to that.
In a separate case, police arrested Juan Flores in the city’s 14th homicide of this year. He’s accused of stabbing Alonzo Little to death early Saturday morning, in an apparent case of domestic violence.
A juvenile female called in the assault. She was in the home at the time, but was not harmed.
