Torrance police say they have become aware of a planned youth 'takeover' at the Del Amo Fashion Center on Saturday and will beef up security at the mall.

Police say they have become aware of a planned youth 'takeover' at the Del Amo Fashion Center on Saturday and will beef up security at the mall to thwart any potential problems. Should it materialize, the takeover would be the latest disturbance at the Torrance shopping center, which recently instituted a chaperon policy after several large youth melees.

Amid the crowd, juveniles were fighting and witnesses reported hearing gunfire. A few months later, five youths were arrested after another crowd's 'escalating disruptive behavior' forced the mall to shut down early. The swarming events have become a problem for law enforcement agencies and retailers across the country.
