9 injured in Florida beach shooting – police

Nine people were wounded after gunfire erupted along a beach broadwalk in Hollywood, Florida on late Monday night on Memorial Day, police said.

Hollywood Police Department spokeswoman Deanna Bettineschi said the shooting occurred during an altercation between two groups.

She added that one person of interest has been detained and another suspect is at large.

A video posted on Twitter shows people running away in panic after gunshots were heard.

Memorial Healthcare System spokeswoman Yanet Obarrio Sanchez told NBC6 that children are among the victims.

Witnesses told the Associated Press that they heard multiple gunshots. One witness was quoted by the news agency as saying that “several young men were fighting in front of the stores when one pulled a gun.”
