Once shoppers heard shots, everyone ran, hid, and feared the worst.

Tonya Haygood said she never thought a night out with her husband and the mall would end with both of them fearing for their lives.

“I remember the people just looking so scared,” Haygood told Channel 2′s Gwinnett County Bureau Chief Matt Johnson. “With all the crazy things going on, and now, your best bet is to run because you just don’t know.”

Haygood said they were browsing in a store after a shot at Medieval Times when people started running in all directions.

Gwinnett County police said it was around 7 p.m. on Saturday when someone started firing shots in the mall.

“I looked towards my husband and my husband was pointing towards the back of the store and told me to run towards the back of the store,” Haygood said.

The couple hid in the store while they waited for the chaos to calm down.

Police said no one was hurt.

“That’s not funny, you know, because people could get hurt just running,” Haygood said.
