Flash Mob Breaks Out at South Hills Village Mall

A large crowd gathered at the north end of South Hills Village Sunday afternoon as a flash mob of middle school students broke out!

A large crowd gathered at the Target/Dick's end of South Hills Village Sunday afternoon as a flash mob broke out. A few girls in pink T-shirts began to beautifully dance as music started blasting from nearby speakers.
