At least 11 people have been injured in a mass shooting on Sunday night in a popular South Carolina beach town, police say.

The Horry County Police Department said the incident occurred at about 9.30 p.m. on Watson Avenue in Little River.

In a Monday morning update, police said their investigation indicated that the shooting “resulted from an altercation during a private Memorial Day weekend gathering on a charter boat.”

Ten individuals sustained gunshot wounds, with another victim suffering an unknown non-gunfire-related injury, police said.
