Three college students on spring break who were among seven people wounded in a shooting early this morning at a home in Panama City Beach, Florida were "innocent victims," police said.
Three people were in critical condition, the Bay County Sheriff's Office said. Three others were in stable condition and one victim was in surgery, officials said.
Among the victims were three young women from Alabama A&M University visiting Panama City Beach for Spring Break, the sheriff's office confirmed.
The university identifed the three as Kearria Freed, 20, who was in critical condition; Kelli Regina Curry, 20, who was listed in stable condition; and Annesia Powell, 19, who was undergoing surgery.
AAMU's Lt. William Schumake said a Bay County investigator said the three students were "innocent victims in the wrong place when an altercation broke out resulting in shots being fired."
Witnesses helped identify the suspected shooter as David Jamichael Daniels, 22, of Mobile, Alabama, according to the sheriff's office. Daniels was in custody, charged with seven counts of attempted murder, and was expected to make a court appearance later today.
Six firearm-related calls were reported in the area on Friday night, according to the sheriff's office. In another incident a gun discharged at a condo, officials said, and four additional firearms were seized in drug-related cases.
