One person was shot during a senior skip day party in Long Beach, New York, on Thursday night as a massive beach party became chaotic.
At least one person was shot Thursday evening after more than 2,000 teenagers gathered in Long Beach on Long Island, New York, for what police said was a 'senior skip day.' 'Next thing you hear is one shot go off, then you hear several more go off,' a witness told FOX 5. 'All we see is a flash, and we see a bunch of girls start running. All we see is a couple people tripping.' The witness said he and another person ran to a nearby laundromat and stayed there.
A Long Beach Police officer told FOX 5: 'Earlier today there was a large group of youth on our beach, upwards of over 2,000. The group was dispersed by the Long Beach Police Department with the help of the Nassua County Police Department. Segments of the group got into the area of Edwards Boulevard and Park Avenue and the individual was shot. That individual was taken to the hospital and is being treated.
