A tranquil summer afternoon at the upscale Fashion Island mall in Newport Beach disintegrated into violence Tuesday, with a woman killed after a botched robbery attempt.
A struggle ensued, and the woman was then dragged into a parking lot and subsequently was run over by the suspects' white Toyota Camry.
During the pursuit, the getaway driver allegedly let at least one accomplice out before he and another man sped on.
The shooting occurred just after 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, at what is known as a usually peaceful shopping center, which sits on a bluff above the ocean, in the wealthy coastal community.
