“Earlier today there was a large group of youth on our beach, upwards of over 2,000. The group was dispersed by the Long Beach Police Department with the help of the Nassua County Police Department. Segments of the group got into the area of Edwards Boulevard and Park Avenue and the individual was shot,” an officer told Fox 5.

The victim, described as a young adult male, was transported to the hospital, though his age and current status were not disclosed. Authorities indicated the massive gathering appeared to be organized via social media, with participation from multiple schools, according to Fox News.
