"Officers have checked the business and there is no indication a shooting occurred inside," reads the release. "Due to conflicting information, we are in the process of checking the entire mall out of an abundance of caution."
"At this time we have not located nor have any reported victims related to the initial call regarding the knife or shooting," the statement added.
Video shared across social media has captured dozens of police vehicles surrounding the shopping center.
