Victim’s family sues in 2022 Greenwood mall shooting

The family of a man killed in the 2022 Greenwood Park Mall shooting is now suing mall ownership and the security company tasked with keeping mall customers safe.

Victor Gomez was shot and killed in July 2022 in the food court at the Greenwood Park Mall, owned by Simon Property Group. The Gomez family argues mall ownership was negligent and employees should have been paying attention to security cameras when Jonathan Sapirman walked through the mall with a large, suspicious backpack.

Sapirman walked into the food court restroom, dumped some electronics into the toilet, walked out with a gun and started shooting. He killed Gomez along with Rosa and Pedro Pineda before being shot and killed himself by Eli Dicken of Seymour, a mall customer.

The family of a survivor has also sued Simon Property Group and Allied Security.
