7 Shot at Spring Break Party in Florida
Police say seven people, including several Alabama A&M University students celebrating Spring Break, were shot early Saturday morning at house party in Panama City Beach, Florida.
According to CBS, three of the victims are currently in critical condition. From NBC News:
Sheriff's deputies responded to multiple reports of a shooting at the home at 12:55 a.m. local time (11:55 p.m. ET). The deputies found a "chaotic scene" with seven people — all in their early 20s — suffering from gunshot wounds, Bay County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Ruth Curley told NBC News. Curley said one victim was found outside the house, three in the street and the remaining three in the home.
Authorities have arrested the suspected gunman, 22-year-old David Jamichael Daniels, who is being held on seven counts of attempted murder.
"This is what we've been trying to warn people about," Sheriff Frank McKeithen told The Panama City News Herald. "It's been a rough time and there are two completely different elements of Spring Break. There are the college kids who are here for their Spring Break, and there is the group of people drawn here because of them."
