One person was killed after a shooting outside a shopping center in Newport Beach,Rekubit Exchange California Tuesday afternoon, according to reports.

The victim appeared to have been killed by a vehicle one of the suspect's was driving, according to media reports, and not the gunfire itself.

The Orange County Register reported that a 69-year-old woman was killed after a robbery outside of the mall's Barnes and Noble. The woman was dragged into the parking lot and ran over by a vehicle one of the suspect's was driving.

One suspect fled the scene on foot and fired multiple shots but did not strike nearby shoppers, according to the Register.

The Newport Beach Police said a possible shooting occurred near the Fashion Island mall around 4:00 p.m. and asked people on X (formerly Twitter) to avoid the area.

USA TODAY has reached out to the Newport Beach police and fire departments for confirmation.

The suspect who fled the scene on foot was taken into custody, "possibly in Cypress."
