MOA shooter Shamar Lark pleads guilty, accomplice Delyanie Arnold sentenced
BLOOMINGTON, Minn. -- A man who opened fire at the Mall of America last summer has pleaded guilty to assault, and another man who helped him escape has been sentenced.
The shooter, Shamar Lark, pleaded guilty to second-degree assault with a dangerous weapon Tuesday morning, according to court records. Two other charges against him were dropped.
Delyanie Arnold, who helped Lark evade arrest after the shooting, will serve 120 days in the Hennepin County Workhouse and another 120 days on home detention or work release, per court records. He also received three years of probation. Arnold pleaded guilty in April to aiding an offender to avoid arrest.
Per a criminal complaint, Arnold helped facilitate Lark and Rashad May's escape from MOA after Lark fired multiple shots inside a Nike store in August.
Lark's sentencing is scheduled for July 26. May will be sentenced for aiding an offender in later this month. Selena Raghubir, who was also charged with aiding an offender, is scheduled to go to trial in August.
No one was injured in the shooting.
