Not long after, hospitals started reporting several gunshot victims arriving in emergency rooms, deputies said. Teenagers from several high schools had gathered at the park for the afterhours “flash party” that was announced on social media and not sponsored by the local recreation commission, Lott said.
“This was people putting it out on social media and saying, ‘Come,’ and the bad people came,” the sheriff said.“If you think wearing a mask, sneaking around a building and shooting into a crowd makes you a man — no, you are a coward,” the sheriff said,Dozens of shell casings from several different weapons have been collected at the park, but Lott said he wasn’t ready to say exactly how many people may have been shooting.
