Lancaster EMS was among the many first responders who helped treat shooting victims at the mall
Jeremiahs Sanchez, now 19, pleaded guilty in February to 60 charges related to the October 2021 shooting that injured 4 people, including one trampled by bystanders.at Lancaster's Park City Mall will serve up to 32 years in prison following a sentencing hearing Tuesday afternoon in Lancaster County Court, prosecutors said.
One of the victims was a mother struck in the arm as she was shielding her young child and another an elderly victim who was trampled as people ran to get out of harm’s way. Defense counsel argued Sanchez did not start the fight and that two of the victims approached him from behind inside the mall to initiate the incident.
“There’s one inescapable fact here,” Judge Dennis Reinaker said before imposing sentence and after Sanchez and two witnesses spoke on the defendant’s behalf. “The other two didn’t have guns. was the only one to bring a gun into the mall that day.” Sanchez was approached by 18-year-old Elijah Deliz and 30-year-old Sergio Vargas inside the mall. A physical altercation between the three males ensued and Sanchez fired one shot that struck Deliz in the leg and another that struck a 30-year-old uninvolved civilian in the arm. The civilian was with her 5-year-old child.
