VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — A hospital was overwhelmed. Emergency response teams were stretched thin. And a city is again grappling with gun violence after at least 14 people were shot in separate incidents overnight.
Seven of the victims — with two dead — were shot at a house party in the 5000 block of Killam Avenue near the Old Dominion University campus, police said.
Officers were alerted to the shooting around midnight Sunday — at the scene they found four women and three men with gunshot wounds. All were taken to a local hospital, police said; two had life-threatening injuries.
