The world is officially out of control.
Breaking news from Florida is that another gunman has killed at least two people and injured 17 more in a Florida nightclub attack. Club Blu in Fort Myers was hosting a ‘teen night’ when the gunman entered, bullets striking many as young as 13.
Here’s the Daily Telegraph with the latest:
Witnesses describe the scene as a “mad house.” There were reports of gunshots and people poured out of the nightclub, a witness said.
… one woman who lives two blocks from Club Blu said she heard about 30 gunshots.
When she arrived, people were crying and screaming as others were being carried away in ambulances to Lee Memorial hospital.
“It was unbelievable,” she wrote via Facebook.
Parents say their children were dodging bullets and running between cars.
Some footage from the scene:

As of yet neither the victims nor the gunman have been identified. It is also not known whether the gunman has been captured by police, who have arrested one person of interest.
The latest statement from the Fort Myers Police:
The latest from CNN:
A Facebook flier advertised a “Swimsuit Glow Party” at the establishment Sunday night. The flier said that no identification would be required to enter, meaning the party was open to all ages.
The call alerting police to the shooting was received at 12.30 a.m.
The Lee County Sheriff’s Office stopped a vehicle that had a suspect in it, Mulligan added, but did not give any additional detail about the stop.
