At least seven people have been shot, including a 15-year-old, on a boardwalk in Hollywood, Florida, according to CBS News Miami.

A live camera of the boardwalk shows people running from the scene moments after the shooting.

 

Police said there would be a heavy presence of officers as the investigation continues. Officials were also setting up an area for family members to reunite.
 
Nine people were shot, including a one-year-old child, during an altercation between two groups near a busy area of the beach in Hollywood, Florida, Monday night, officials said.

I’m not sure if they would qualify this as a mass shooting since I believe the article said it was a dispute between two groups (who apparently can’t aim well) that spilled into the street.

Either way it’s horrific and I’m so thankful there were no deaths. But this wasn’t some maniac walking around executing people this time. Thank you God.

I'd say this was a maniac walking around, executing people. Or have multiple shooting deaths in a pedestrian area become so normalized that it's just the way folks settle their disputes these days?

Typically the definition of a mass shooting is a shooting where 4 or more people are shot, regardless of any fatalities.
