On the Pierce County Jail roster a Shawn Kemp, who has the same birthday as the former Sonics player, was booked Wednesday related to an investigation of a drive-by shooting.
Kemp was a six-time NBA all-star and played for the Sonics from 1989 to 1997. He is also a prominent Seattle businessman, owning two cannabis stores, one in Belltown and the other in SoDo.
Police responded to a shooting following an altercation between two groups of people at the Tacoma Mall around 2 p.m. on Wednesday, however police have not confirmed whether or not this is the incident Kemp is believed to be involved with.
Police were called to the mall after reports of shots being fired between the two groups in two separate vehicles. One of the drivers fired off several rounds at the occupants of the other vehicle.
