7 Wounded in Spring Break Shooting in Florida - New York Times


Spring break turned bloody when seven people in their early 20s were shot with a .40-caliber handgun early Saturday at a house in Panama City Beach, Fla. The shootings were described on an official Facebook page for Frank McKeithen, the Bay County sheriff.


The sheriff’s office responded to multiple emergency calls at 12:55 a.m. on Saturday to find the young men and women, several of whom were Alabama A&M University students who had gone to Florida for spring break. The Facebook post described a “chaotic scene,” with victims found in and in front of the house and across the street.


The police apprehended David Jamichael Daniels, 22, of Mobile, Ala., near the crime scene. He was charged with seven counts of attempted murder and was being held in the Bay County Jail. The police also recovered a .40-caliber handgun like the one used in the shootings in a nearby backyard.


All seven victims were being treated at a nearby hospital on Saturday afternoon.
