Large police presence at Rivergate Mall finds nothing after a shooter threat

GOODLETTSVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Monday night a large police presence was at the Rivergate Mall in Goodlettsville, investigating a call about an active shooter.

A NewsChannel 5 source said the doors were being blocked by police cars and people were walking out of different entrances.

Goodlettsville Police later said they responded to what was only a threat along with Metro Police, and preliminary investigations indicate it was a false call. They searched but could not find anything with an accurate shooter description, believing it to be a hoax.
