Tacoma police received a call around 2 p.m. local time about shots being fired from a passerby vehicle in the parking lot of the Tacoma Mall, according to FOX 13. Police said nobody was injured in the shooting.

A source close to the former NBA star told the station that he allegedly had property stolen from his car on Tuesday and tracked his iPhone to the Tacoma Mall. The source added that when he approached the vehicle, a suspect shot at him, and he fired back in self-defense.
