Officers on scene determined that a group of people ran through the mall, which caused alarm. Ontario Dispatch then received multiple calls claiming a person had a gun and gun shots were heard. It has been determined that there was no gun or shots fired. We will continue to investigate the false claims and hold those persons accountable. The Ontario Mills Mall is safe and has resumed business as normal. #sceneissafe #falsereports

Ontario Police are on scene at the Mills Mall following reports of a disturbance. Officers are working to identify if there was a crime and who may have been involved. Please avoid the area. Updates to follow.

I couldn’t be more proud of the @OntarioPD Honor Guard for being recognized with the distinguished Golden Boot Award. @laurajherzog presented the award tonight at the Honoring our Fallen Gala. We will never forget those who gave all for our freedom.

Terrible bills like SB 57 are reasons why crime, homelessness and even violent crime have increased. This is another bill that puts the criminals interest over the law abiding citizens safety.

[OC Sheriff Don Barnes @OCSheriffBarnes]

SB 57 would permit specified cities and counties to operate facilities for individuals to consume illegal narcotics. This backward proposal shows a disregard for life and would accelerate CA's drug epidemic. Please see my letter urging Governor Newsom to veto this bill.

[Chief Rudy Lopez @OntarioPDChief]

The reported active shooter @ShopOntario was caused by unruly juveniles with no respect for peaceful shoppers. No shots were fired and no weapons were seen. Out of an abundance of caution, @OntarioPD officers conducted a safety sweep of the mall.

[Chief Rudy Lopez @OntarioPDChief]

Reports of an active shooter @ShopOntario the Ontario Mills Mall is false. The mall is safe

[Chief Rudy Lopez @OntarioPDChief]

Outstanding work by our officers getting this armed and dangerous criminal off the streets of Ontario.

By @CAgovernor cutting this funding, numerous child predators will remain undetected to prey upon innocent children.

Lawmakers must stop making excuses for criminal behavior but hold them accountable. Crime specific bail and criminal enhancements are necessary to keep our streets safe. These type of arrests happen all too often.

[Ontario Police Department @OntarioPD]

OPD officers conducted a traffic stop that led to the arrest of an ex-felon gang member in possession of an unlawful firearm while on bail for a prior firearm charge. OPD works proactively and diligently to keep criminals and unlawful firearms off the streets.
