Washington D.C. rapper No Savage is wanted by police for a recent shooting at Tysons Corner Mall in Fairfax, Virginia. The rapper, whose real name is Noah Settles, is being charged with malicious wounding, use of a firearm while committing a felony, and three counts of firing a weapon in an occupied building.

The shooting occurred at 3:00 PM on Saturday, June 18. The Fairfax Police Department says he was engaged in a dispute with another group before brandishing a firearm and firing off multiple shots. He then fled the scene in a black Cadillac with the D.C. license plate, GK0174.


Police say that no serious injuries were sustained; however, minor injuries were reported from shoppers who fled the area in a panic after hearing the gun shots.

“We will find, capture, and hold accountable the persons involved in this melee,” Fairfax County Police Chief Kevin Davis said during a news conference. “This reckless discharging of a firearm. We are going to find them. I promise you that. They will be held accountable, and that’s going to happen in short order.”
