TORRANCE, Calif. (KABC) -- A fight amongt juveniles prompted a temporary shutdown of the Del Amo Fashion Center mall in Torrance Saturday, police said.



According to a spokesperson for the Torrance Police Department, officers assigned to monitor the mall noticed a group of juveniles arguing around 12:42 p.m.
