Two people were killed and several others were injured after a shooting broke out at a supper club in northeast Florida late Saturday, officials said.
Four people were shot and one person was beaten with a blunt object after a confrontation escalated at Vick’s Supper Club in Palatka, about 60 miles south of Jacksonville, Palatka police said on Facebook.
Police said the incident unfolded just before midnight. It was not immediately clear whether the shooting occurred inside or outside the supper club.
All five people were taken to Putnam Community Medical Center, from which they were airlifted to trauma centers, police said.
Two of the victims did not survive; the conditions of the injured were not immediately clear early Monday. Police did not immediately provide details about the victims’ identities.
Police said the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and the state attorney’s homicide investigative unite were assisting in the investigation.
No arrests were reported.
In an update Sunday, police said they had determined there was “no active threat” to the community.
