FREMONT, Calif. - Fremont police arrested five people, including one 17-year-old, whom they say fired off shots into the air and stole video games on Black Friday from a Target store at the Hub shopping center.

Spokeswoman Geneva Bosques said the shoplifting and gunfire was reported Thursday at 11:38 p.m. outside Target on Fremont Boulevard, which was set to close at midnight.

At that point, the suspects' friends drove up in a getaway car and that's when one of them fired multiple rounds in the air, Bosques said, before they took off in a silver Volkswagen. No one was injured.
