Six people were injured and one person is in custody following a shooting at a shopping mall in Boise, Idaho, city police said Monday.

There were ‘multiple reports’ of injuries, according to the Boise Police Department. In a tweet the department confirmed five people and a Boise Police officer were injured in the shooting.

Just after 3 pm local time, police said they were ‘responding to reports of shots fired at the mall on N. Milwaukee,’ identified by CBS affiliate KBOI-TV as the Boise Towne Square mall.

The department is notifying family of those involved as they continue clearing the mall.

Police said officers are still working to secure the scene and people are asked to avoid the area.

Police plan to hold a media briefing at 4:30p.m local time.
