The shooting call came to police just before 2 p.m. Shots were fired from a passing vehicle in the parking lot on the northeast side of the mall near the Courtesy Tire store.

Police said nobody was hurt in the shooting and that the suspect, initially identified as a 53-year-old man, was detained at the scene.

Multiple sources confirm to FOX 13 News that Shawn Kemp is the suspect.

Kemp is a 6-time NBA All-Star. He was a first-round draft pick in the 1989 NBA draft. He was known as Reign Man. Shawn Kemp got his nickname, The Reign Man, from the Seattle SuperSonics play-by-play man Kevin Calabro. Calabro was noted for his excited phrases and for giving players nicknames. Calabro saw the phrase The Reign Man on a poster in the arena before a game and started using it after a Kemp dunk.

Shawn Kemp is worth Millions of Dollars and appears to act like a Ghetto Gang Banger. Even Rich Black People aren’t capable of Civilized Behavior! What is wrong with the Black Community? What is the Black Community doing to Make America Great Again? BLM burning down cities is not something positive.
