OCOEE -- Gunfire erupted late Saturday night at the West Oaks Mall as hundreds of teenagers rushed the mall's movie theater.
Ocoee police were called to the mall to help control a large, hostile crowd. Orange County deputies said 800-900 middle school and high school students tried to rush into the theater without paying. Ocoee police said 200-300 made it inside. Police said the juveniles and young adults were causing a disturbance in the food court and movie theater area of the mall.
Police said a large group rushed into the theater and continued causing a disturbance there. Orange County deputies and police from Winter Garden and Windermere were called in to help disperse the crowd.
"During this time, there was a shot fired and somebody was robbed," said Lt. Paul Hopkins, of the Orange County Sheriff's Office. "But the Ocoee Police Department jumped on that quickly and were able to catch the gunman with the gun and make an arrest out of that."
Ocoee police said one juvenile was arrested for battery and resisting an officer without violence, and a second was arrested on misdemeanor drug charges.
Added Hopkins: "Our main concern is this: These are middle to high school kids who have guns, who are shooting guns, who are robbing people, driving stolen cars and they have drugs in their car. ... You need to know where your kids are at all time."

Beneath the glitter of the theme parks “Greater” Orlando has become a hellhole.
That’s too bad. It was a beautiful city.
So much for that theory. Orlando does have a seriously bad black neighborhood.
I wonder who coordinated these “teens” in their rampage? Probably some professor at the local state university...
“When the yutes storm the theater, the theater should show educational documentary films.
LOL, excellent suggestion. Perhaps they should show one of those grainy black-and-white school films from the 1950’s. Something like: Here’s how to do long division.”
ASt that point, the audience began dividing the seat upholstery, slicing the rugs, ad nauseam.Shudda locked the doors and kept the Lil’ Ferals for the cops to arrest one by one.
That would make a Perp Parade, not a mere Perp Walk.
Was that a bone sticking through the witness’s nose?
I think it was a ring.
The piercing/tattoo fad is out of hand.
