“Detectives are actively investigating,” an OPD spokesman said in a statement. “Once we have more information to share, we will make that available to you.”
Witnesses told Channel 9′s Nick Papantonis that the shooting stemmed from a fight between a teenager and a clerk in the store, but police have not confirmed that information.
