Westroads Mall reporting new security measures

OMAHA, Neb. — Mall officials are reporting new security measures in the wake of Saturday’s deadly shooting at Westroads.

Two days after the second shooting there in five weeks, Westroads Mall officials issued a statement, saying “Westroads will be utilizing a highly trained, weapon-detecting canine to visibly patrol our center.”

They’ve also enhanced several security measures behind the scenes, though the mall would not comment on those tactics publicly.

Two teens were arrested Sunday after 21-year-old Traquez Swift died following Saturday’s shooting at the mall that also left a 22-year-old woman injured.
