Hope everyone is safe :(. It’s always a shame when people have to resort to any kind of violence. Can’t we just use our words.

No, that’s not visible to the naked eye at the moment. Also comets do not look like a “fireball”, they appear basically stationary.

It was a shooting at the nail/hair salon by JC Penney on the lower level.

Damn! Never knew there was a shooting at that mall.

Don’t forget Manchester By The Sea

It is so sad when you hear about a shooting, it becomes scary when it was at a place you have been to many times. Those of you who were there, I really hope you will be OK after experiencing this trauma.

c'mon over to haverhill instead, the water's great

we were in a pretty similar spot, love the north shore but its too pricey. was deciding between haverhill, lowell, nashua, lawrence because we like more of a "city" feel. really couldn't get behind lawrence and feeling uncomfortable going down certain streets. haverhill is honestly great, was able to get a lot more house than we expected and feel very safe

Tbf this is America and this happens every day here. I'm not surprised even a little bit that it finally happened at the Holyoke mall.

Appreciate the thoughts We're planning on setting that up; I know it will take them time to work through it.

I was at the South Shore Plaza during a shooting and therapy helped me get past it. This kind of thing can cause PTSD and it's worth going and talking to someone if you can.

Met any Shakers lately?

Near which store? We were literally just there shortly before.

ETA I only ask because there was something weird going on with security in the target when we were there.

I was at one at the South Shore Plaza a year ago almost to the day of this one. Therapy helped me a lot if they are still having trouble in a couple of weeks it's worth talking to someone. It took me months before I could go back to the mall.

>A man is dead after a shooting at a mall Saturday evening in Holyoke, Massachusetts, officials announced.

>the victim was an innocent bystander to a confrontation between the two other people

So that's pretty awful.

Two individuals in an altercation. Unfortunately, the 1 fatality was an innocent bystander.

Iirc, people on this sub were insiting Holyoke is totally safe, especially the mall 🤔

That station project has been abandoned for too long.

Was it gang related or an attempted mass shooting?

Cool cool cool, I was there just a few hours prior…

appreciate it

I was working a shift when I heard the gun shoots. I was buffering until I saw everyone run and realized, “Oh shit!!! Those were gun shots!!!” They we’re really close btw.
