According to NBC, the incident happened during a “teen night” in the parking lot of Club Blu in Fort Myers at around 12:30 a.m. ET, with some of the people at the event as young as 13.
The scene has been described as “a mad house” and there have been reports of gunshots as people were exiting the nightclub, according to Wink News, a television station based in Fort Myers. Another witness says that she heard around 30 gunshots from the scene and believes that these came from a number of weapons.
Police say that the scene is still active and they are searching for suspects in two locations in the city. A total of three people have been detained in connection with the nightclub shooting, while police say they are trying to determine a motive for the shooting in the parking lot.
