WRBL notes there is no information on whether the shots were fired by one individual or multiple suspects.
Russell Medical Center’s Susan Foy “confirmed to Fox News the hospital treated multiple victims and released them. Several victims with gunshot wounds have had to be transferred to other hospitals to better tend to their specific wounds/injuries.”
