 One man is dead and seven others wounded following a shooting Sunday at Rolling Oaks Mall. 
 
 It is unclear if all those injured were by gunshots. 
 
 San Antonio Police Chief William McManus called it "a robbery gone really, really bad." 
 
 McManus said two men robbed a Kay Jewelers at the mall. As they were escaping they encountered two citizens who tried to intervene. 
 
 "There was a fatality," McManus said. "One of the citizens who tried to intervene and stop the robbery, the robbers from escaping, was shot by one of the suspects."

 McManus said that is when the second citizen, who had a concealed carry license, pulled his gun and shot that suspect. 
 
 McManus said he did not know if the two citizens who intervened were there together, or if they just happened to be there at the same time. He later called those two individuals "good Samaritans." 
 
 The second suspect then ran away through the mall, shooting as he went. Others were injured and the suspect is still at large, though police do not think he is still in the mall. 
 
 McManus said according to preliminary reports, six other people in addition to the suspect and "good Samaritan" who was shot and killed, were shot by the second suspect as he fled.

 The mall has been locked down, but McManus said everyone who is still in the mall is secure and safe and detectives are questioning witnesses. 
 
 "We've searched the mall, and we feel as confident as we can feel that, that suspect is not in there," McManus said. He said once everyone is out of the mall they would do a second sweep with K9 units. 
 
 As of 6:40 p.m., San Antonio police started releasing groups of people from the mall. 
 
 The San Antonio Fire Department active incidents page reported at least 28 units responded to the mall's address at 3:30 p.m. 
 
 "We were in the mall, we heard the shots and just started running. It was chaos" said Benjamin Arsate, who was near the food court when he heard the shots. 
 
 "I mean where do you go to have fun now? This is insane. It's like nowhere's safe anymore," he said. 
 
 Maggie Hernandez was with her daughter Tera, 18, at the mall when they heard of the shooting. "It was scary," said Tera, who had been crying as they escaped the mall. 
 
 "We started running out, too. You don't want to be caught inside," said Maggie Hernandez. 
 
 They the huddled with a group of Dillard's employees behind a car outside, terrified. 
 
 "It's a learning experience right?" said Maggie. "If you have this experience, then either hide or find a nearest exit." 
 
 Mayor Ivy Taylor later arrived at the scene and lauded the quick and efficient coordination between law enforcement units. But also lamented violent nature of big cities. 
 
 "I know here in San Antonio we often feel insulated because we have such a great community, but we've seen an uptick in crime in big cities across the countries and unfortunately we're not immune to that," she said. 
 
 District 10 Councilman Mike Gallagher said this incident shouldn't be grouped with the active shooting incidences in public places that have made headlines across the country in recent years. 
 
 "I just urge everyone to remain calm and continue their routines as usual, and to have confidence that law enforcement officials are certainly working diligently to ensure their safety," Taylor said.

(Published Monday, Jan. 23, 2017) 
 
 What to Know Both armed robbery suspects are in custody and face preliminary charges of capital murder and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. 
 
 Two victims, a man and a woman, remain hospitalized in an unknown condition following the shooting and robbery. 
 
 The names of the good Samaritan, two victims and two robbers have not yet been released. 
 
 Two people are facing capital murder and aggravated assault charges after a robbery and fatal shooting inside a San Antonio shopping mall Sunday ended with one man dead and three others injured, including one of the robbers, police say. 
 
 Leslie Garza, the director of communications for the San Antonio mayor, told NBC News the robbery took place at about 3:30 p.m. Sunday at a Kay Jewelers inside the Rolling Oaks Mall on the northeast side of the city. 
 
 As two armed robbers ran the store, one of them fatally shot a "good Samaritan" who got in their way and tried to stop them, according to San Antonio Chief of Police William McManus. 
 
 Police have not said what the good Samaritan, identified Monday as 42-year-old Jonathan Murphy, tried to do to stop the men. 
 
 McManus said a witness to the shooting, who was carrying a licensed concealed weapon, shot and wounded the armed robber who killed Murphy. 
 
 San Antonio police spokesman Officer Doug Greene said Monday the man who shot one of the armed robbers was within his rights to use his gun. 
 
 "What we have here is a robbery gone really, really bad," McManus said, adding that the fatal shooting was "absolutely senseless." 
 
 The second robber ran from the mall, firing his weapon and injuring a man and a woman. 
 
 A witness who spoke to WOAI-TV said she heard as many as six gunshots. 
 
 San Antonio police and Bexar County Sheriff's Deputies arrived and the mall was locked down while a store-by-store sweep was conducted to search for the second gunman and anyone else who may have been involved. 
 
 Meanwhile, the injured man, woman and robber were all taken to area hospitals, according to San Antonio Fire Chief Charles Hood. Two other people not injured by gunfire — a woman who complained of chest pains and a pregnant woman who had labor pains — were also taken to local hospitals. 
 
 San Antonio Mayor Ivy Taylor and San Antonio police both tweeted Sunday night that the second robbery suspect had been arrested, though no other details about the arrest were immediately available. 
 
 "Today's deadly shooting at Rolling Oaks Mall is a tragedy for everyone involved and all of us affected," Taylor said in a statement posted on Facebook. 
 
 The investigation into the shooting is ongoing and police have not yet released the names of the suspected robbers or the victims injured and killed in the shooting. 
 
 Authorities said both suspects face preliminary charges of capital murder and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

– One person is dead and five more injured in what San Antonio's police chief calls a mall "robbery gone really, really bad." (The number of casualties was in flux.) Police say it began when two men robbed a Kay's Jewelers in the city's Rolling Oaks Mall, then were confronted by two people who tried to stop them as they left, reports MySanAntonio.com. One of the robbery suspects shot and killed one of the Good Samaritans, and the other Good Samaritan then shot and wounded that suspect, reports NBC Dallas-Fort Worth. The second suspect then took off through the mall and began shooting, say police. The AP reports that he injured a man and woman, while two others in the mall sustained non-shooting injuries. Both robbers were thought to be at large.
