A 15-year-old boy is facing weapons-related charges after an incident at CF Polo Park Mall Tuesday afternoon.

Just before 3 p.m., officers were called to the busy mall for the report of a young man brandishing a handgun in the food court. 

Mall security kept an eye on the suspect until officers arrived, letting officers know that the firearm had been discharged within the mall. 

Two youths were arrested without incident in the mall's food court, and an airsoft pistol was seized from one of the suspects. 

No one was injured. 

A 15-year-old boy from Winnipeg is facing a charge of possession of a weapon and causing a disturbance. 

He was released on an Undertaking as mandated by the Criminal Code.

The second youth was released on his own recognizance without charges.
