As mentioned above, the former cinema was later a retail outlet; I believe it was last used as a Fashion Bug store. I’ve been told that the mall closed in 1998.
The entire mall was torn down in 2010 and is now a vacant lot. See more info here: View link
The murder of the manager had nothing to do with the theatre, like a robbery or something like that – he was involved with the drug trade and apparently screwed someone over in some sort of transaction – they came to the theatre to settle the score, which resulted in Willie assuming room temperature.
The Forst Saginaw Mall was opened in 1966 by GCC and closed in 1976 after the murder of its manager. After the theatre closed it was chopped up into small retail outlets. The entire mall closed in the early 1990’s.
