Four people were killed and at least 20 injured during a mass shooting at a crowded bar in South Carolina in the United States on Sunday.
According to officials, the shooting incident took place at an idyllic location in Willie’s Bar and Grill on St Helena Island. A large crowd was at the scene when sheriff’s deputies arrived and found several people suffering from gunshot wounds, officials said.
“Multiple victims and witnesses ran to the nearby businesses and properties seeking shelter from the gunshots,” the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement on the social media platform X, as reported by the Associated Press. “This is a tragic and difficult incident for everyone. We ask for your patience as we continue to investigate this incident. Our thoughts are with all of the victims and their loved ones.”
Officials said four persons were found dead at the scene, and among the 20 injured, four are critical and have been hospitalised nearby. The AP report said the victims’ identities have not yet been released.
