2 people injured in south Scottsdale grocery store shooting

Two people were hurt in a shooting that happened at a Scottsdale strip mall on Tuesday night, according to the police.

The severe gunshot incident along Scottsdale and Thomas roads was reported by the Scottsdale Police Department just after six o’clock in the evening.

According to police, there was a fight at the Albertsons grocery store at that crossroads, and it spilled over into the parking lot where the shooting happened.

According to Sgt. Aaron Bolin, two people were shot during the incident and were rushed to the hospital in severe condition.

According to the police, the gunfire was likely an isolated occurrence and there was no immediate threat to the region.

Both of the injured individuals are in critical condition.

Police vehicles, an ambulance, and a firetruck were visible in front of a Great Clips salon, H&R Block, and other businesses as SkyFOX hovered over the scene.
