Nine people were injured Monday evening when gunfire erupted along a beach boardwalk in Hollywood, Florida, sending people frantically running for cover along the crowded beach on Memorial Day.
Police spokesperson Deanna Bettineschi said several of the victims were taken to a children's hospital.
But, authorities have not yet released the ages of the victims or provided details about their conditions.
Police said a preliminary investigation shows that an altercation between two groups resulted in gunfire.
One person has been detained and another suspect is still being sought.
The shooting happened about 6:30 p.m. on the broadwalk near a number of stores.
