COLUMBIA, S.C. — As many as six people were wounded in a shooting Friday along the Isle of Palms beach as hundreds of high school students from Charleston, Berkeley and Dorchester counties were enjoying a traditional spring day of cutting class.
Videos captured by pedestrians showed the chaos as crowds of students and beachgoers fled in panic from the picturesque beach, just north of Charleston.
First responders, some already on the beach breaking up fights between the teens, attempted to shield those nearby when shots rang out.
