Dallas police said officers responded to the mall at approximately 10:30 a.m. Saturday for reports that the mall received an unconfirmed threat.

DALLAS — The NorthPark Center along U.S. Hwy. 75 in northern Dallas was evacuated Saturday morning due to a potential threat, WFAA confirmed.

Dallas police said officers responded to the mall at approximately 10:30 a.m. Saturday for reports that "the mall received an unconfirmed threat."

Sources told WFAA that parts of the mall were being evacuated. NorthPark Center sent WFAA the following statement:

"NorthPark is aware of the situation involving threats to several area Nordstrom stores. Out of an abundance of caution, Nordstrom NorthPark is closed at this time as DPD investigates."

Just before 1 p.m., shoppers were allowed to go back into the mall. 

The center remains open for normal business hours, NorthPark officials said.

DFR said one person was transported to the hospital, but did not disclosed their injuries or condition.
