A shooting in Myrtle Beach, South Caroline left one person dead and 11 others injured late Saturday night, according to police.

The Myrtle Beach Police Department is now scrambling to piece together the horrific scene as the popular tourist hotspot turned into a zone of terror.

Just before the clock struck midnight on Saturday at 11:50 p.m., Myrtle Beach police officers stumbled upon a full-blown brawl involving a crowd of people.

According to the authorities, they 'observed a disturbance involving multiple individuals.'

Cops say a chaotic fight turned deadly in Myrtle Beach when someone whipped out a weapon, forcing an officer to fire back.

'The individual shot during officer response has passed away as a result of their injuries,' police posted on Facebook.

Authorities confirmed the officer involved escaped without injury.

The Myrtle Beach Police Department released a statement, saying: 'The Myrtle Beach Police Department offers its prayers and deepest sympathies to everyone affected by this incident.'

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

The only person killed was the shooter? Well, okay.

Strange headline.

There's nothing in the article that actually says there were any shots fired other than by the officer that shot the suspect that had a gun.

So, it's a one shot "mass shooting"?

Well, it does say one dead and 11 others injured.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

The injuries could have been from the melee that was going on before the police got there.

Could have....but "A shooting in Myrtle Beach, South Caroline left one person dead and 11 others injured..."  implies those injuries were caused by the shooting. YMMV

We will never find out.  The new cycle has ended and the press has moved on to the next mass event that they find more to their liking.  Like one with a MAGA shooter.

But the article only says the police shot the guy that brandished a gun with no indication any shots were fired by anyone other than the police. Bad journalism...
