Fairfax County police said they are looking for Noah Settles, who goes by the stage name No Savage. Settles, investigators said, got into an argument with a group of people around 3 p.m. Saturday, June 18, pulled his gun, and fired several shots inside the mall.

They said he sped away from the McLean mall in a black Cadillac with DC license plate GK0174. He is considered armed and dangerous.

A video posted to Instagram shows Settles in an argument with multiple people moments before the shooting. Fairfax County confirmed the video's authenticity. It shows people making fun of Settles, who repeatedly threatens them in return and reaches into his waistband several times. He storms off before any shots are fired. It's unclear what sparked the fight.

Note the video includes foul language.

No Savage posted an apology on Instagram on Monday, according to WJLA, that read, "I love y'all. I'm sorry for letting y'all down."

Videos on social media show the aftermath of the shooting as hundreds of people rushed out of the nearest exits and into the parking lot.

No one was injured in the shooting.
