A shooting that erupted at a Florida beachside road where more than 200 people gathered and were seen partying and dancing despite pandemic restrictions on Saturday night left several people injured.

The Volusia County Sheriff's Office released helicopter images showing the large Memorial Day weekend crowds surrounding a car outside a beachfront mall as men stood on the sunroof and out the windows throwing money around and blocking traffic.

Images show the group scattering when officers arrived, but another large group then gathered around a different vehicle.

The Daytona Beach Police and the sheriff's office said on Twitter that a shooting that ensued near the beach Saturday night sent several people to the hospital with wounds.

Law enforcement agencies say no arrests have been made.
