Hunt on for gunman after at least one person is killed at an Indiana mall by a 'gunman in a clown mask covered in a ripped up US flag'

At least one person has been killed by a gunman after a gunman opened fire in an Indiana mall and footage showed terrified shoppers sprinting away.

Frantic calls flooded into the Mishawaka Police Department just before 3pm as residents reported a shooting at University Park Mall.

St. Joseph County Coroner Michael McGann confirmed on Saturday evening that one person had been killed but no other details were available, the South Bend Tribune reported.
