She explained, however, that she was far enough away from the incident that she was able to seek refuge in a GUESS shop next to a shooting range. She mentioned that while she was protected, she could hear screams in the mall.

: "I just escaped! There was a scream in front of me at #FashionShowMall. It was like shooting. #GUESS near the shooting range protected me."

"I heard screams from outside the door several times after fleeing to GUESS.
