Paramus NJ, Paramus police arrested a 17-year-old boy from Lodi, who they say was carrying a loaded pistol in a fanny pack at the Garden State Plaza shopping mall.
According to Paramus Police Chief Kenneth Ehrenberg the arrest was made on Saturday after officers were told someone in the mall was carrying a gun.
Officers identified and found the suspect, after he matched the description they were given, among a group of minors.
