The gunfire was exchanged during a dispute involving at least two vehicles in the parking lot of Target in the Lower Nazareth Commons shopping center on Dryland Way around 2:15 p.m., The Morning Call reports citing Northampton County District Attorney Terry Houck.

One man was killed and another remained in stable condition, though their identities have not been released, Houck said. 

There was no evidence that any bystanders had been injured during the incident, according to LehighValleyLive.

Target remained closed until Monday for the initial investigation, which caused a temporary shutdown of several other stores in the shopping plaza as well.
