Edwards says two women and two men were shot, one of them fatally. Twenty-year-old Bobby Clayton died at a hospital. A female victim, in her early-to-mid 20s, remained in critical condition and on a respirator.
Police say another woman was shot in the arm, but is fine. A male, who police believe initially started the shooting, is also hospitalized but expected to recover. A third woman actually suffered only scrapes and bruises when she fell running away from the gunfire. There was no sixth victim.
