A lockdown at Eden Prairie Center was prompted by man bringing his gun to the mall with the intent of having it serviced, police say.

Eden Prairie police said they received a report at about noon that a person with a weapon was inside the mall. Police put the mall in lockdown and searched the building.

A mall employee reported to police during the lockdown that a man carrying a gun case had entered the Scheels store, where he intended to get his gun serviced. He left the mall after being told there were no gun services at that Scheels location, according to a statement from police.

The mall reopened at about 1 p.m.
