   HOLYOKE, Mass. (WWLP) – A juvenile male was arraigned in connection with   
   a shooting incident at the Holyoke Mall on July 25, in which he allegedly   
   shoplifted and produced a firearm, resulting in a shootout with an officer.   
      
   In a news release sent to 22News from the Hampden District Attorney’s   
   Office, at around 4:30 p.m. last Friday, a Holyoke Mall security officer   
   observed an individual allegedly shoplifting and alerted Holyoke Police   
   Officers working a detail assignment inside the mall.   
      
   The suspect was approached by officers near the Round 1 entrance, where   
   he allegedly showed a firearm. The suspect and an officer exchanged   
   gunfire. Holyoke Police say that the suspect, a juvenile, was shot in the   
   leg. The suspect was provided first aid and brought to the Baystate   
   Medical Center in Springfield.   
      
   The suspect’s firearm was recovered. The suspect, whose name is not   
   released due to their age, was arrested. On Monday, the suspect was arraigned   
   virtually in Springfield Juvenile Court. He is being held without the right   
   to bail. Additionally, the judge ordered bail set at $100,000 cash, without   
   prejudice. He is scheduled for a court hearing on August 4th.   
      
   “This harrowing situation could have ended much worse. Juveniles and guns   
   is a recipe for disaster,” said Hampden District Attorney Anthony Gulluni.   
   “The juvenile’s alleged behavior is appalling and we will seek   
   accountability to the fullest extent of the law. We are grateful that no   
   innocent people or officers were injured.”   
      
   “While this incident can cause fear, the Holyoke Mall is a safe place to   
   shop and visit. We have officers here to deal with incidents like this and   
   ensure that the public is safe,” stated Holyoke Police Chief Brian Keenan.
