NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — On Wednesday, a large police presence was at Opry Mills Mall due to a report of "shots fired."
People were evacuating the mall at least since around 6 p.m. Dispatch initially said they did have officers responding to a call of shots fired, but did not have any further information.
One of our reporters spoke with an officer at the scene who said they could not find anything suspicious.
Originally, we reported a fight broke out at the movie theater, however, Metro PD says the fight was not at the theater, but at a Haagen-Dazs store.
No one is injured, and there was no evidence of a shooting or gunshots were found. Police say metal chairs hit the floor and people mistook the noise for gunfire.
The mall was later cleared, and 3 teens, two 16 years old and one 14 years old, have been arrested for disorderly conduct.
A teen fight at the Haagen-Dazs store in Opry Mills caused metal chairs to hit a tile floor, causing persons to mistake the noise for gunfire. MNPD called. Mall has been cleared of patrons. No evidence of gunfire whatsoever. Mall has reopened. No impact to movie theater.

Young or old, we all love to play board and card games! Those games become even more important when you are indoors and don't have the ability to get outside, like patients in a hospital.
