The police department's Street Crimes Unit has placed warrants on file for his arrest.



Wynn has outstanding warrants on file for felony reckless endangerment, disorderly conduct and possession of a firearm with intent to go armed.



Police say it started as a confrontation inside the mall then spilled outside here into the parking lot, As one of the groups were trying to leave, that's when 18-year old Jeremy Wynn fired a single shot in their direction.



"They got back into their vehicle and left, and the person who fired the shot went back into the mall in an effort to leave and escape," said Asst. Chief of Neighborhood Policing Eric Tucker.



Police say Wynn was aiming at a group of people he was arguing with.



Assistant Chief Eric Tucker says by the time officers arrived Wynn was gone. they think he left the mall through a different store.



"It was determined by eyewitness accounts and it was determined by video surveillance," Tucker said.



Police searched for that suspect and mall management decided not to put the mall on lockdown.



We're told by police there was no threat to the public once they realized the suspect had run off.



"That was established very soon in the investigation, so it was irrelevant at that point," Tucker said, "I mean it was determined that he was gone."



The decision on a lockdown is ultimately up to the owners of Hamilton Place Mall.



They denied our request for an on-camera interview but released this statement that says,

"On Saturday May 30, 2015 at approximately 5:30 p.m. an argument broke out and a single shot was fired in the parking lot. This was an isolated incident and one which we take very seriously.



We will continue to work with the Chattanooga Police Department on the investigation. One of our top priorities is to provide a comfortable, convenient and enjoyable shopping experience for our customers, retail partners and employees." - Catherine Wells, CBL Marketing Director.



Assistant Chief Tucker says at the time, police were focusing on securing the area not contacting store managers or mall patrons to tell them of the incident.



"But in this particular case, the way in unfolded, and the information that we gathered, it was the proper response," Tucker said.
