MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Police in Madison are still searching for the person who shot a 19-year-old man in the leg at East Towne Mall.  Police spokesman Joel DeSpain says no arrests have been made in Saturday’s shooting, partly because the victim isn’t cooperating.  DeSpain says two groups of at least 10 young men, including the shooter and the victim, were fighting at East Towne Mall when one shot was fired. The bullet hit the victim’s upper thigh and ricocheted off the pant leg of a kiosk employee, who wasn’t hurt. The shooting prompted a temporary lockdown.  DeSpain said police have video from mall security and some stores, but the shooting wasn’t captured. Detectives and the department’s gang unit are reviewing the video to try to identify those involved.
