Seven people were shot at a party early this morning in Panama City, Florida, some of whom were Alabama A&M students visiting for spring break. The Bay County Sheriff's Department has arrested David Jamichael Daniels, 22, of Mobile, Alabama and are holding him on seven counts of attempted murder.
"This is what we've been trying to warn people about. It's been a rough time and there are two completely different elements of Spring Break," said Sheriff Frank McKeithen. "There are the college kids who are here for their Spring Break, and there is the group of people drawn here because of them."
"Sheriff's deputies responded to multiple reports of a shooting at the home at 12:55 a.m. local time (11:55 p.m. ET). The deputies found a "chaotic scene" with seven people — all in their early 20s — suffering from gunshot wounds," the Sheriff's Office spokeswoman said. Three are reported as being in critical condition.
