Police in the Chicago suburb of Lincolnwood said a 5-year-old boy was killed in a freak accident when a large mirror fell off the wall of a shopping mall clothing store.

Officers said the accident occurred Saturday afternoon in the Express women's clothing store at the Lincolnwood Town Mall.

The victim was identified as Jonathan Villagomez. Police said he was at the store with his mother and other family members when the 5-by-12-foot mirror suddenly fell off the wall and hit him.

The mirror was attached to a "false wall" in the dressing room, area police told WMAQ-TV, .

Store and mall managers would not comment on the incident other than to say their "prayers are with the family."
