A South Carolina beach partially filled with high school students participating in a "senior skip day" descended into chaos on Friday 7th as gunfire injured at least five beachgoers.

Local police originally reported that six beachgoers were injured; four days after the incident, they said that only five were injured.

Isle of Palms Police Chief Kevin Cornett said that the majority of the injured were teenagers, though one older beachgoer was also injured.

Police were already at the beach responding to two fights when the shooting began around roughly 5:20 p.m.

"A large crowd of individuals that apparently were part of a group from senior skip day had gathered on the beach," police said at a Friday evening press conference. "There were a couple of altercations that took place and during one of those altercations, there were several shots that were fired."

Two people have been arrested in the wake of the shooting, officials said Saturday.

Shawn Alexander Goods-Martin, 18, has been charged with possession of a firearm in a municipal parking lot, while an unnamed 16-year-old is facing charges of possession of a stolen firearm and unlawful carry, officials said.

Both were detained in the aftermath of the incident allegedly in possession of weapons, but at this time police cannot confirm that they are suspects in the shooting, officials told Saturday morning.

Police had multiple suspects in custody Friday evening, though Cornett said at the time that did not know if they had the actual shooter detained. Law enforcement also recovered multiple firearms at the beach which was shut down after the incident.

"We have weapons recovered, but we cannot say that they were the weapons involved in the incident," police said.

Video from the scene of the shooting showed hundreds of beachgoers running from the area amid a cacophony of screaming and police sirens.

Some of the victims were transported by ambulance to a local area hospital though authorities confirmed that multiple others self-transported.

One of the victims remains hospitalized in stable condition while the other four have since been released, officials said Saturday.

Who the fuck brings a gun to a beach party? I mean what the actual fuck is wrong with these people? You can't even enjoy a day at the beach without some thug sneaking in and ruining everyones day or even life.

You can take the thug out of the hood, but you can't take the hood out of the thug.
