Police said one person is in custody, but they are searching for a second in the area. People inside North Star Mall told KENS the building was on lockdown as police searched for the suspect.
A JCPenny employee told MySanAntonio.com that the mall was on lockdown due to a possible active shooter situation.
The website reported that U.S. Postal Inspector Service agents, Texas Department of Public Safety troopers and the San Antonio Police Department are involved in the manhunt.
Authorities said the suspect is wanted in a weekend shooting of a mail carrier. The mail carrier was taken to a local hospital with a gunshot wound to her leg.
